I have the EXACT same issues. I'm sorry for arriving late to this thread
but I was searching around and my onboard, re0, chip=0x816810ec, rev=0x01,
gets Bad Packet Length on some ssh connections I have. Basically I notice
this under some load (like while doing a portupgrade).
I doubt its the memory, the notebook is brand spank'n new (I don't think its
ECC RAM but it could be). Based on this post it seems that there maybe a
bug in the RTL driver on 64-bit platforms? Anyone else see this? I may go
try to track this down myself.
Thanks!
