Have you looked at the manual page for this driver? (try running 'man
rl' in a (x-)terminal). I quote:

     rl%d: watchdog timeout  The device has stopped responding to the netwo=

     or there is a problem with the network connection (cable).

I recently dumped an rl based card because it didn't work properly
(upload speed sucked).
