          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: IPV4
        AssignedTo: shemminger at linux-foundation.org
        ReportedBy: gearge at gmail.com
        Regression: No


I have an odd problem with my NIC; on both x86 and x86_64 OpenSuSE 11.3 I lose
network connectivity with my gateway router, if heavy downloading is evolved
(e.g. downloading a large file over HTTP or any activity - large or small - on
bittorrent). I have no limitations on my ISP side and the router is working
fine. I even upgraded to the latest firmware from my wireless router's vendor
and installed third party firmware, but the problem remains. While I lose
connectivity on the wired network segment (my PC is directly connected to the
router), the wireless segment continues to operate. What's even more odd, I
have no networking issues while watching streaming media - normal or higher
quality.
