Thank you Francesco. Just to be bullet proof, your network works with the nomsi option but not without.
And just as a bit more information from my side: the high IRQ number is not a problem but just an indication that a device is using MSI instead of "normal" interrupts. Which is not bad. You avoid shared interrupts for one thing. The problem seems to be either the device (or some versions of that) or the board which indicate with their capabilities to support this, have some flaws. Well, you can't rule out drivers but somehow I believe that if code is added with the comment that a certain card has been proved to work, that it worked at least for one instance (call me optimistic). Now I hope that with the help of those that have problems, it is possible to get some sort of pattern on which combinations work and which don't.
