If you check the output of ifconfig you'll see that only the "TX" transmitting side was affected. You did not even say which version of the kernel you were using.

Switch back to 2.2 and you'll be alright. > Starting pump is the only solution (it's the only program which knows how > to make the driver/nic reset), even when running with a static IP address. > > How do I fix this? > > Martijn
