[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH 1/2] ar71xx: fix ethernet packet loss issues on OM5P-AN

Hi!

Sorry for hijacking this thread...
I observed some recent ubiquiti gear suffering from similar issues,
suspected the hardware being broken or some EE functionality missing in
the driver as the issue usually occurs after some time of inactivity...
My logs repeatedly get filled with stuff like that:
Fri Apr 10 17:31:07 2015 kern.info kernel: [75029.020000] eth0: tx timeout
Fri Apr 10 17:31:07 2015 kern.info kernel: [75029.020000] eth0: link down
Fri Apr 10 17:31:08 2015 kern.info kernel: [75029.850000] eth0: link up (100Mbps/Full duplex)

Observed on ubnt nanostation loco m5 xw and recent bullet m5 with phy
having phy_id 0x004dd041

Could that be related?

Cheers


Daniel
