just to offer my (possibly worthless) $.02:

it is my understanding that if it was HARDWARE related (the actual NIC(s)), then you would not be able to bring them down and then bring them back up again
.
since, from a cursory read, it seems you are able to do this then i'd have to guess it's either software or service provider

I had not seen these results before but they, like the other results I've seen,

tulip driver and deep-6 it.  Now I'm convinced this has the highest probability
of being the answer.

Thanks!
