I think I am also getting same problem, what is the solution.

Output of mii-diag -v :
eth0: 10 Mbit, half duplex, no link
product info: vendor 00:00:00, model 0 rev 0
basic mode: 10 Mbit, half duplex
basic status: no link
capabilities:

This is the output from very old machine Pentium MMX with Redhat 7.1

I also tested different RTL8139 adapters on different machines with
different kernels and different kind of switches and Hubs but I get
same error on all the machines. But my other Network devices are
working perfectly.

Thank you,
