Hi Thinus, I noticed aswell that the rt_e1000 takes fairly long to detect the actual line state (speed, duplex settings...). Can you load the rt_e1000 a while before initializing the remaining parts of your setup? This can be done by modifying the rtnet script: Add the delay within the function init_rtnet() after insmod $RTNET_MOD/$RT_DRIVER$MODULE_EXT
This could help to identify if this is actually the e1000 that causes the issue.
