PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1): 56 data bytes
eth0: 21143 10baseT link beat good.
eth0: The transmitter stopped!  CSR5 is fc67c016, CSR6 ff972117.
eth0: 21143 10baseT link beat good.

(Some time passes and I hit C-c.)

--- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics ---
258 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss
