now i updated the bios to 0804 and tried it again with windows xp sp2:
it loses the connection several times but after several attempts a usable connection is established.
with linux i can't get any connection, even "ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 autoneg off" does not work.

"ethtool -i eth0" says
driver: forcedeth
version: 0.60
firmware-version:
bus-info: 0000:00:07.0

in /var/log/messages "eth0: link up." and "eth0: link down." is continuously listed.
no further errors for eth0 or forcedeth.

the lights of the router are even blinking if the computer is shutdown but powerconnected.
