In short: the rt_r8169 does not support your hardware. It likely lacks some code that latest Linux versions of that driver contain. Someone has to identify the differences and port them into the RTnet version. If you are not familiar with driver development and no one else steps up, you will have to use a different hardware, one that is support by RTnet (e.g. some e1000e-supported Intel NIC).
