It isn't completely wrong.

You're spoiled. It is more than decent for a company whose core business
used to sell cable TV.

Please try a recent stable vanilla kernel and send a complete dmesg
from boot. I need to identify the specific 816x chipset.

Then record some traffic:

# touch gonzo.pcap && tshark -w gonzo.pcap -i eth1

It should only exhibit small outgoing packets but, well, one never knows.

Check the leds activity to be sure that the network interfaces have not
been renumbered.

Use ethtool to check that tso is disabled. If it isn't, disable it.
