You said you had a XXXX networking card, so that's probably
the problem. Try this patch on if_XXXX.c:
+XXXXXXXXXX
-XXXXXXXXXX
(it's a unidiff).

Really, you need to provide us with at last the name of your
networking card.
Also, you should try to ifconfig down the interface, and then
ifconfig it back up, in case it's a lost interrupt or something
that needs a timer to correct (doing the ifconfig's will reset
the card).
