Hi Holger
Or use "RTL8201F Fast Ethernet"
I wonder if other drivers have similar problems?
davicom.c: .name = "Davicom DM9161B/C",
intel-xway.c: .name = "Intel XWAY PHY11G (PEF 7071/PEF 7072) v1.3",
intel-xway.c: .name = "Intel XWAY PHY11G (PEF 7071/PEF 7072) v1.4",
intel-xway.c: .name = "Intel XWAY PHY11G (PEF 7071/PEF 7072) v1.5 / v1.6",
intel-xway.c: .name = "Intel XWAY PHY22F (PEF 7061) v1.5 / v1.6",
smsc.c: .name = "SMSC LAN8710/LAN8720",
