messages, nic problem

Description of problem: 

I brought a new router (gigabit) some days ago.
When i attached that nic to tha gigabit router, the kernel sundande driver complained about the transmit queue and then it went to sleep... 

The nic is a 10/100 card, but it seems to not to be able to obtain/mantain 100 mpbs speed with that router. Previously i worked ok. Tried another cable, no luck. It works with the old router, though...

01:08.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Sundance Technology Inc / IC Plus Corp IC Plus IP100A Integrated 10/100 Ethernet MAC + PHY [13f0:0200] (rev 31)

I still have the nic, in case that is caused by a real software bug, i may be able to retest with that nic.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

kernel 2.6.40.6-0.fc15.x86_64

How reproducible: allways.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. plug the sundance nic to a linksys wrt320N
2. no net
3. no net
  
Actual results:
no ethernet device or no ip connectivity

Expected results:
100 mpbs speed link and tcp/ip connectivity

Additional info:
I replaced the card to another (different chipset) to use the new network hw.

static ip is used, no NM is running.
