Comment 2 for bug 472057

I'm having this problem too. I had a very hard time figuring what caused me disconnections when traffic was high (Bittorrent for example), I changed my router but the problem still appeared. When I was pretty sure it was a Ubuntu/Linux Kernel issue only, I found the same error in syslog when I was disconnected. I joined it as an attachment but I was never notified that something was going wrong. No KernelOops. It seems to be a problem with the r8169 module when large packets are received or under heavy traffic.
