	Well, my workaround is to turn off (unplug from AC power) the
TP-Link WDR4300, wait a few minutes and turn it on. Then e1000e will
autonegotiate 1000 Mbps correctly.

	The question is: the problem is with the router or with the
e1000e driver? Since many users are having the same problem, couldn't
e1000e deal with it in a better way?
