Explaination of the issue

I don't think all E2500 models are Realtek based. Mine doesn't work when using RealtekRTL8111.kext, otherwise when using AtherosE2200Ethernet.kext do work like a charm

In this case, I'd suggest to correct the following note statement with: image

Note: some Atheros Killer E2500 models may be Realtek based. For these systems if AtherosE2200Ethernet is not working please use RealtekRTL8111 instead

CC @khronokernel do you agree?

Unless someone can verify that "any" E2500 is Realtek based, I suggest you remove that statement. If so, I suggest you reword it to say, "If you've tried the E2200 kext and it didn't work, your E2500 may be Realtek based. Try RealtekRTL8111 instead." I've done a lot of searching and not found one post that indicated the Realtek kext worked with the E2500.
