To my knowledge, we haven't changed anything in that part of the stack from the period of June through September. That doesn't mean that something we changed in the system could not have impacted that device. In some cases, there are actually known issues with the BCM5719 and BCM5720 that exist; however, that's not what the individual who is having networking problems is seeing. I'm sorry you're seeing issues with rge, but in this case, if you have cycles to debug, that'd be extremely helpful for us understanding what's going on and potentially improving whatever is happening with the card. We don't own or use most networking cards and we rely on the community to test and help improve them. If you don't know how to debug, that's something we can also help with.
