That looks like an interrupt problem. With iwlagn and r8169 blacklisted
see what interrupt number the et131x gets (cat /proc/interrupts) and see
if it goes up whenever you send/receive stuff.

If not then I don't think its an et131x problem but an IRQ routing
problem (eg a bad BIOS table, or a kernel bug elsewhere)

Agreed.
