>How-To-Repeat:
Run NetBSD on a Shuttle DS47 or DS437 system
>Fix:
Taken from OpenBSD src changes summary for 2014-03-08:
  > Add the RX earlyoff support for older chips (8168{E-VL,EP, F}) and RXDV
  > GATED
  > bits for the 8168G controller. This fixes operation of the 8168G
  > controllers.
  > This makes reception of packets work with the 8168G controllers in the
  > Shuttle
  > DS47 and other systems.
  > From FreeBSD, based on the Realtek Linux driver.
