This probably won't be helpful, but whenever someone inquires about
trouble with a Realtek network chipset someone ALWAYS responds that
Realtek network hardware is junk and that you should replace it
with something good, such as an intel e100 or e1000 or some such.
Me, I've never had trouble with a realtek card, myself.
