Hi,
on my Mac G5 I see loss of network connectivity when doing big downloads or
uploads.
The machine cannot be pinged anymore then and also cannot ping out.
When it's happening I see the following messages:
Oct 11 10:45:13 g5 kernel: [ 430.477967] gem 0001:04:0f.0 eth0: RX MAC fifo
overflow smac[03810400]

Does setting the interface down, then up works? Like ifdown eth0; ifup
eth0. Or ip link set eth0 down; ip link set eth0 up, and verifying the
address and route are restablished (in case you are using
NetworkManager, for example).
