Realtek NICs are garbage... For an entertaining read, look at the header of the kernel drivers. The author goes into detail on why they are such crap. In my own testing, they do not provide their advertised speeds and their jumbo frame support is laughable. It's not a question of newer drivers; The hardware is terrible. I stick with Intel NICs. These perform way, way better and aren't that expensive. digimer On 06/17/2013 10:33 AM, cesar wrote: > Hi to all people > > Excuse me if I ask a question from rookie > > But tell me that: "the in-kernel realtek drivers of the 2.6.32 kernel were > known to cause troubles.
