I also opened a case (E24110026198-0001), but maybe someone experiences the same problems. My new X870E-E (newest 0606 BIOS) has problems with the internal LAN adapter. Currently it's connected via Gigabit connection, but that shouldn't cause problems, at least would be very bad if you would have to connect it via 5 Gb/s LAN. It seems to work normally at first, a speed test maxes out my internet connection (1000/500) and ping also is good in speed test. While playing online games, I got massive packet loss issues (while having jumping ping times), competive games are unplayable. When I try to use WiFi or external USB LAN adapter the problems are gone. So I uninstalled the current ASUS LAN driver V1126.16.1121.2023 and let Windows install a driver, which is way older. But with this old driver everything works fine. I can reproduce the problem, when installing new driver again the packet loss problems reappear.
Does someone have similar problems with the new driver? What could that be?

This was solved ages ago, just need to disable Energy-Efficient Ethernet- it's a Realtek issue.
Plus there's two problems in here and people keep conflating the two and not having a care in the world if that becomes confusing for others, making the thread harder to follow. The NDIS driver is legacy, so if this works better then, again, Realtek issue. So I'm not sure who your rant is aimed at as it doesn't quite make sense. The only thing that makes sense is suggesting whether using RT in future is viable, but then all these consumer grade NICs have their own problems. You'd soon complain if using certain NICs jacked the prices up higher.

this was NOT solved ages ago. the ONLY thing that worked was pete4ka's solutoin. I had to read 12 pages of this thread to get to the actual solution.
disabling EEE did not fix it for many people otherwise this thread wouldn't be so long if it did. It's absolutely ridiculous that this board has been out for half a year the only solution did not come from ASUS. This board is too expensive to be having problems like this

Someone else who's not specified what problem they're talking about, bravo
Disabling EEE 100% resolves the packet loss problem.

Yes, exactly the only thing that worked was pete4ka's solution for me too. Please keep the attitude off these forums guys, treat each other with respect and be dignified. We are not animals.
We still have no up to date driver that works.

I can confirm this worked for me after hours of ripping my hair out trying to fix this
THANK YOU
ASUS please properly address this. this issue seems to be widespread for a lot of other users and warrants a formal response and solution

I was praying this would have helped my situation but it did not work. Do I have to uninstall all drivers or something?
That that is happening with me is that the mobo is throttling my internet. No packet loss just jumps to 1 gig and then steadily falls off to 300-400 mbs. Same with upload. Super frustrated.

Same here, massive packet loss. I have made a support ticket. If I just use wifi its fine, but I bought the board for the 5gb network adapter. I don't want to game over wifi.

Many thanks to @pete4ka . Your solution worked partially
for me. I played POE2 for about 30 minutes and didn't notice any reduction in the network speed. It never really lasted that long. It was always about 10 minutes. But after about 30 minutes the internet speed dropped to rock bottom and the ping became bad. I couldn't play anymore.
But now comes the solution that actually worked for me. For some reason the driver changed the network speed to 10Mbps on its own. Why??? Now I manually changed the value to 5.0 Gbps Full Duplex and now it actually seems to be working. I've played for several hours now and haven't had any speed restrictions or packet loss. Finally
I also wonder how you can not test a driver like that. Even if it doesn't happen to everyone, it shouldn't be like that for weeks.

Thats a good idea - the EEE doesnt work well at all - i suggest turning off the following:
Advanced EEE, Energy-Efficient Etherent, Gigabit Lite and Green ethernet.
These are all power saving settings that aren't great anyway.
Glad it helped!

GUYS,
I was battling the same issue as you and found that resetting CMOS on your MB will resolve the issue with the ethernet speed.
I hope this will help you, it takes literally 2 minutes.
