Hi I backported the changes for r8169 2.6.33 driver to 2.6.32 to see if it would resolve this problem but the same error still is present.
However, if I use an 8139too card with 2.6.32 driver there are no errors. Any ideas for fixing this for the r8169? Thanks again, Robby Output from dmesg shows: [ 3818.716203] EtherCAT 0: Domain0: Logical address 0x00000000, 2940 byte, expected working counter 63.
