I have RTL8169S in my laptop, and have seen the same up/down/up/down etc. behavior that is noted in PR 80005. I am running 7-CURRENT about a day old. I switched from my custom kernel back to GENERIC and the problem went away, so I started adding things from my custom config file into GENERIC to see what finally broke it, and it turned out to be: options ACPI_DEBUG Just thought that I would mention it... re0: Reserved 0x100 bytes for rid 0x10 type 4 at 0x1000 re0: port 0x1000-0x10ff mem 0xd0008800-0xd00088ff irq 19 at device 8.0 on pci0 miibus0: on re0 rgephy0: on miibus0 rgephy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseTX, 1000baseTX-FDX, auto re0: bpf attached re0: Ethernet address: 00:90:f5:32:35:9f re0: [GIANT-LOCKED] -- Mike Oliver [see complete headers for contact information] pgpYlryu57Wjo.pgp Description: PGP signature

First, you could try ettercap, which is designed to do all sorts of neat things on switched networks.
