I merged all required changes to both stable/10 and stable/9.
Upcoming 10.0 will have support for all known RealTek ethernet controllers including RTL8168/8111G.
If you still see the same issue on more recent FreeBSD releases(e.g. 8.4-RELEASE), please open a new PR and let me know the PR number.
A long time ago, I fixed a controller lockup issue of ae in r227452 but the fix does not fix watchdog timeouts. Probably diver can reset the controller when it...
Recently I fixed the non-working traffic LED on BCM57780. The fix would be available with the upcoming 9.2-RELEASE. Note, I didn't merge the change to stable/9 or stable/8 yet. But I guess you can manually apply the patch from the following URL...
I checked in the WIP version to CURRENT. bge(4) in CURRENT should support all Dell Rx20 and HP systems. I'll merge the change to stable/9 and stable/8 after 3 ~ 4 weeks.
I've updated WIP driver again(URL is the same). With the generous help from Emulab, I was able to narrow down root cause of the issue on remote server and finally fixed the instability issue on Dell R820. So it's highly recommended to try WIP driver if bge(4) still does not work on your box.
Sorry for late reply. I didn't forget this issue and I didn't give up either.
The experimental driver posted in above URL shows mixed results. It does not seem to work on Dell R720/R620 but I was told the driver works on Dell R420/R320(newer Dell model).
It seems there is some hardware...
I uploaded updated driver. It still has some issues but appear to work better than previous one.

You need latest stable/9 to try this driver.

I've encountered a couple of issues during testing. Had been busy for $DAYJOB and couldn't find spare time to address it for a while. You can download experimental code if you can't wait for stable driver. The experimental driver may or may not work on your box...
I'm working on integrating the required change to make BCM5720 with NC-SI firmware work on FreeBSD. It needs more testing and cleanups to not introduce regressions on other controllers. I'll let you know when patch is available to testing.
Linksys, now Cisco, is notorious for changing chip sets with the same model name. So it's somewhat hard to know what chip set was used in Linksys LNE100TX. Its version number 5.1 may indicate what chip set is used but I don't know details of their version scheme.
Please open a PR with full...
VIA Velocity VT612x had no problems on supporting jumbo frame. On PCIe VT613x, it no longer supports 9K frame size.
As I mentioned in the commit mail I intentionally disabled it mainly due to severe hardware limitation and code complexity(jumbo frame on VT613x is *NOT* compatible with VT612x)...
