Sorry to hear that you have this issue. Recently, we have seen tx hang issue 
with 82571 because of the driver bug due to dma burst enabled.
A quick check would be to try the test driver that I have attached.
Please untar the driver src, compile it and insert the module. See if issue 
occur!

Thanks.
