I've just found and installed that Realtek PCI card I was talking
about - it's an r8169 chipset card and so far I've not been able to
crash it but as I feared, throughput is much lower, varying between
about 580 and 650 Mbps although I'm not sure whether
I thought that might be the case. I think I've finally learned my
lesson about Realtek NICs anyway, I ordered a PCI Intel NIC earlier
today so I'll see how that goes.
Thanks very much for your help everyone. :)

Sorry about the delay I didn't have a chance to try anything yesterday.
Anyway I've just tried a direct connection, updating BIOS, compiling and
installing the latest drivers and it's still the same, if not worse - it

Thanks for replying.
To answer your questions - I couldn't find anything unusual in the
logs, the first message around the time of the crash was the shutdown
message when I pressed the power button.
I have a PCI realtek card I could try with, I think it's a different
chipset so I'll try with that,

Hint: a standard PCI 32bit/33MHz PCI bus can transfer 132MB/s, which is
slightly greater than the
