I tried to respond to your earlier email but it bounced with your return email as your [email protected]. I am the owner for the driver of this part. I'm sorry you are having problems with it. Please also file an issue with Source Forge for this problem and we'll have a place to post data. Can you please post an lspci -vvv complete output and also an lspci -t which shows the bus arrangement in the system. Do you see the problem on the onboard 1G parts as well or just in the quad port add on? What is your link partner for this file transfer? How large is the file being transferred? What other ways are you using to transfer the data, scp, ftp, etc.? Finally, what is the made and model of the client system that contains the devices?
