Jumbo frames on RN314

I'm running a Realtek integrated NIC (on my Gigabyte motherboard). It seems to work initially and then the web interface will not respond after some period of time. I do not experience the same type of issue with my NV (1st gen model) or Duo v1 so there is something going on. It is completely stable (barring some of the known issues with v6.0) leaving the mtu at 1500.
I would do some tests where you are trying to backup or copy large amounts of data from a computer to a RN314 (make sure your NIC has jumbo frames enabled as it is usually disabled by default). I will perform the same test on two other machines and see if I can reproduce it. I'm using Windows 7 64-bit as my OS if that matters.
