My Ethernet controller AR8152 starts to hang up after few minutes of operation. I am running on Fedora 18. This issue was not there in Fedora 16.
[kasun@localhost ~]$ lspci | grep Atheros
03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR8152 v1.1 Fast Ethernet (rev c1)
[kasun@localhost ~]$
However this is a known issue which from February 2013.
