For anyone interested in trying the never version of the r8169 driver
that's in the latest upstream v3.1 kernel, I've provided it via the
linux-backports-modules-3.0.0 package which I've uploaded to my PPA:

https://launchpad.net/~leannogasawara/+archive/ppa/

After adding the PPA to your system, you will want to install linux-
backports-modules-net-3.0.0-12-generic which will provide the newer
r8169 driver.  Please note that you need to be using the linux-
image-3.0.0-12-generic kernel when you install and you will also need to
reboot after installing.

So, for anyone who is still experiencing issues, please let me know your
results after having tested the newer driver.
