I had the problem with an Asus motherboard - check the CLUG archives.  
One of the symptoms was that many connections would work, but then  
random protocols would not work, with the kernel reporting CRC errors  
on the Ethernet frames.

The only way to resolve the issue was to power-cycle the network  
chipset. Of course, this involved power-cycling the motherboard too.
