Yea, I dunno. I'd say the kernel is the most likely suspect. Assuming
it isn't a co-incidence of some kind. I think I'd look at ifconfig and
check for errors too. 

As to a cron job, I do a loop and ping (actually fping) two close IPs,
and if both don't answer, then restart dhcp client (pump here). That way
nothing happens unless there is an apparent need. That also gives some
logging and timestamp info to look at.
