I second the thought about it being a cheap network card.  A decent card
shouldn't do that.  But to answer your question you could do this:

#/etc/init.d/networking stop

#rmmod network_module.o

#insmod network_module.o

#/etc/init.d/networking start

That should do the trick.  You just need to find out the correct name of your
NIC module.
