Comment 76 for bug 1447664

I did not apply the patch in #13, but I did try disabling highdma with ethtool (essentially what the patch makes permanent) and that had no effect for me (at least not on the kernel I was using at the time). I did try the patch in #40 and that had no effect for me either. The only thing I've found that keeps my Broadcom 5762 alive without disconnecting is the kernel parameter "iommu=pt". I'm just finally grateful to have found a workaround so I can keep this server wired and not have to rely on its wireless only.

I can't help but think we are chasing a moving target across so many kernel versions since this issue was first reported.
