Since I bought this motherboard (Asus P8Z68V-Pro Gen/3) I have
to deal sometimes (very rare) with this annoying problem:
Sep 8 21:24:43 tux kernel: e1000e: eth0 NIC Link is Up 100 Mbps Full Duplex, Flow Control: Rx/Tx
Sep 8 21:24:43 tux kernel: e1000e 0000:00:19.0 eth0: 10/100 speed: disabling TSO
Sep 8 21:24:44 tux kernel: e1000e: eth0 NIC Link is Down
It keeps trying to establish the link forever, going up and down.
Today it happened after I resumed from standby (S3).
My NIC is:
00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82579V Gigabit Network
Connection (rev 05)
If I search in google for "e1000e link up down" I see a LOT of users complaining.
As far as I remember Alan Cox onde wrote this is a issue with "cheap chinese router"
but I don't understand why there isn't a workaround for this annoying problem.
Usually it establishes the link at 1000 Mbps and as long as I don't turn off the router,
it negotiates the link speed correctly.
Is there some workaround for this? If you need more information, just ask!
Thanks.
Ps: I'm using Linux 3.11.0.
