assuming that you run a linux realy, have a look at the interface with
ethtool

sudo ethtool eth0

and look if it is in full of half duplex mode. If it is in halfduplex
mode that will probably be the cause of the errors. you could try
setting it to full duplex mode with e. g. 100 mbit/s with the following
command:

sudo ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex full autoneg off

this might crash your network connection, so be prepared for a remote
reboot of the machine (or use IPMI if available).
