If you have updated to stable/8, the driver code would be the same.
So need to replace driver with HEAD version.

If my memory is correct, your controller is somewhat old 8168 PCIe
controller. I also have the same TP-Link TG-3468 PCIe network card
which seems to be the only stand-alone PCIe 8168 controller in

summarize your issue again?(Sorry, if you already post it)
