Hi SashaCRC errors not related to the LTR. Please, try to disable the ME on your platform. Hope you have this option in BIOS. Another way is to contact your PC vendor and ask to provide NVM without ME. Let's start debugging with these steps.

Hi Jeffrey,I also tried ignore_ltr for this issue, seems like it alleviates the symptom a bit for a while, then the network still becomes useless after some usage.
Weâve encountered another issue, which causes multiple CRC errors and renders ethernet completely useless, hereâs the network stats:
And yes, itâs also a Whiskey Lake platform. Whatâs the next step to debug this problem?

Same behavior can be observed on both mainline kernel and on your dev-queue branch.
OTOH, the same issue canât be observed on out-of-tree e1000e.
Is there any plan to close the gap between upstream and out-of-tree version?
