I've had the same problem with Intel e1000. My situation is a bit
different, and perhaps normal, but network would drop on heavy
transfers if I set the NFS wsize/rsize above the ethernet MTU setting.
But as-far-as I know it has/will do this with any kernel version..
I'm using kernel.i686 0:2.6.18-1.2869.fc6.
