Please see this for my problems for my problems with Realtek drivers

Just tried this. And unbelievably it's worked (fingers crossed) and my ethernet has yet to drop, and I've been testing it to the fullest as well (torrents+messenger+surfing at the same time). What I did was:
Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Windows Firewall with Advanced Security > (Left Column) Inbound rules > (Right Column) New Rule > Click on 'Predefined'> Select 'Network Discovery' > Select ALL the possible options > Click Next > Make sure Allow the Connection is selected > Click Finish
So far so good! And hopefully this will help others as well.
I applied these settings & yes my Ethernet is not dropping connection frequently, but now its still once a day problem, better than before at least.Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Windows Firewall with Advanced Security > (Left Column) Inbound rules > (Right Column) New Rule > Click on 'Predefined'> Select 'Network Discovery' > Select ALL the possible options > Click Next > Make sure Allow the Connection is selected > Click Finish
Last few days of applying "levesquemarc" suggestion have now reduced the connection dropping to from frequent to rare but it still happens once a day, so its not completely gone away.
Will try doing a clean install of build 7600 & see if that sorts out this problem or not.
I've tried that advice and I've tried to completely disable the advanced firewall (simple firewall's disabled too), but without a solution. Yesterday night my connection's dropped at least 10 times during a simple file download (Internet Download Manager) at 700kb/s.
I have not had a single disconnect since following the steps above.
Thanks!
Its actually not 100% solution but yes it does minimum disconnect now after applying the above steps. Once a day is still happening.
hey im new here but encountered the same problem as you guys. After some googling I found this thread Board Message
and this fix which works so far perfectly
Would like to point out I have been running nforce win7 drivers for 1 week now with no connection problems at all. Its been working great.
I copied this from my technet forum post on the issue:
LAN port configuration:
Sleep on disconnect: enabled
flow control: disabled
interrupt moderation: disabled
ip checksum offload: disabled
jumbo packet: 9014 bytes (this might have no effect for you)
ALL large send offloads: disabled
BOTH low power: enabled
network address: not present
priority & vlan: priority enabled
receive side scaling: disabled
speed/duplex settings: auto
ALL TCP & UDP offloads: disabled
vlan id: 1
ALL wake ons: enabled
Speeds are great, can burst load lots of web sites with no connectivity problems, and works after both restart/shutdown.
Haven't narrowed it down. It appears to happen after enabling one or multiple of the disabled settings.

Seems the problem has been isolated to the "Recieve Side Scaling" setting. The forum thread I mentioned above has several people mentioning that putting this single setting off, without touching any of the others, will indeed fix the problem.
