The 7.1 release doesn't have the best reputation here, as well.  
Networking did better on 7.0, but see <http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ 
query-pr.cgi?pr=130957>.

USB drives were very unreliable either, but installing Hans Petter  
Selasky's new USB stack did the trick. It appears to be bullet-proof  
now: <http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=98343>.

Both reports contain solutions. While the later is in 8-current  
already, the former bug report obviously got stuck. Perhaps you can  
pick up there.
