I can repeatedly lock up my rtl8139C NIC.  So far, it's always
been the one connected to a 10bt hub.  I have been running it as
fast as it can go, and it generally ides in 2-4 hours....

Driver:  stock RH 8.0 kernel, seems to be rtl8139too 0.9.25

Here is the output from rtldiag as found on Becker's site.
There is also some damning critique of the rtl8139too...any
truth to the accusations? :)

I have found bouncing the link does not necessarily fix it as long as
I keep trying to generate traffic.  However, bouncing the link and waiting
about 20 seconds to start traffic again seems to un-jam it.

Let me know if I can offer some more info.

It's the last chip down that seems to be the main culprit....
