Easiest way is to try a new NIC and see what happens.  You could spend 
hours/days checking a network card but they only cost $25 to buy.  The 
other thing you want might want to do is make sure you have a visible 
console window open so that you can see any error messages.  Also , do 
you logs show any signes of a network card reset by the NIC driver??? 
The TLAN drivers would do that.  Don't know about yours.  Also, if you 
are running X then this will probably prevent you from seeing any error 
messages as you are not at a console and if the whole machine is frozen 
then you can't switch back to a virtual console.
