I set the NMBCLUSTERS back to default, which made no difference. Therefore, moving from 4.3 to 4.4 is what drastically increased the frequency at which the link goes down and back up. I also captured dmesg now I case there is any useful information in it. The fluctuation of the link occurs multiple times a second with the new kernel when attempting to use the network with this machine. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
