Why are you using such old code, instead of a recent version?

And why the Bamboo board instead of the more recent Yosemite design?

What do you mean by "fully tested ddr sdram" ? WHich tools did you

Most likely your RAM initialization is not correct, and you are seeing
memory errors in burst mode (when DMAing the network packets). Note
that the normal memory test routines cannot test burst mode accesses.
