May I suggest, to you, the ELRepo Project [1] and the kmod-r8168 package

Unfortunately I never even checked elrepo. Â Do you know if that package is
the same version that is currently on ReakTel's site? Â If so then using the
elrepo package would be a better idea than having to rebuild the source
every kernel upgrade.

I do know my system has an uptime of 22 days vs. more like 22 minutes
(literally!) with the stock kernel.

Thanks for the tip!

It should be (if end-users have taken the trouble to advise of any new
tarballs available from the Realtek ftp server). If you take a look in
your /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory, you should find that your have the
relevant ELRepo Project repository file present but disabled by
default.

Yes, I have elrepo enabled. My problem was I just didn't look for such a package!
