I have that same Xircom adaptor, and the same problem when I suspend and resume via apm, i.e., the network adaptor stops working. This also happens with an Aironet wireless ethernet adaptor, making me believe it is a Sony Vaio/apm problem rather than an apm/Xircom problem. The suggestion that I tried was to put APM=eject in /etc/pcmcia/apm.opts. It might work for you, though it did not for me.
