I did not apply the patch in #13, but I did try disabling highdma with ethtool (essentially what the patch makes permanent) and that had no effect for me (at least not on the kernel I was using at the time). I did try the patch in #40 and that had no effect for me either. The only thing I've found that keeps my Broadcom 5762 alive without disconnecting is the kernel parameter "iommu=pt". I'm just finally grateful to have found a workaround so I can keep this server wired and not have to rely on its wireless only.
I can't help but think we are chasing a moving target across so many kernel versions since this issue was first reported. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1447664 Title: 14e4:1687 broadcom tg3 network driver disconnects under high load To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1447664/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
