I do not experience any hangs with updates, if you by updates you meanthe whole "git pull; make build-all install-all" thing.

I have a small "mini" pc that has two RealTek NICs. If the pc sits idlefor more than an hour I lose network connectivity. I can not accessanything on my networks or on any external site. I have to do a "sudoservice netif restart" to restore network capabilities. It happens onlyon that machine. I'm not sure if it's a BIOS setting or something else.

Do you mean you still suffer the intermittent hang with the update?

So far, I have tested 8110, 8111, 8168 and 8125; all work as expected.

For 8125, the other side will also have to support 2.5Gbase-T to get
it negotiated.  For now, 2.5Gbase-T will be shown as 2500baseSX; it
will be fixed soon.

Please help test.  It will be committed early next week.

I switched to the branch. The machine has booted up and works without
any problems so far. Let you know if anything overflows or freezes :)
