It happened again today (with latest updates - 9-10-07).

Here is "sudo ifconfig -v eth0" when the interface stalls.

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:16:E6:8F:6A:DA  
          inet addr:192.168.1.100  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::216:e6ff:fe8f:6ada/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:1626092 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:1000603 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
          RX bytes:2059023424 (1.9 GB)  TX bytes:100934158 (96.2 MB)
          Interrupt:16 

And, when it's working:

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:16:E6:8F:6A:DA  
          inet addr:192.168.1.100  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::216:e6ff:fe8f:6ada/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:1626250 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:1000922 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
          RX bytes:2059064538 (1.9 GB)  TX bytes:101003583 (96.3 MB)
          Interrupt:16 

"sudo dhclient eth0" doesnt fix it.

But, "sudo ifdown eth0
sudo ifup eth0"

fixes it.  Sometimes after ifdown&&ifup it stays up for a minute or so
afterwards, requiring another ifdown&&ifup.  Then it will work for
hours.  I have only been casually browsing the web (no heavy load)
lately.  It doesn't seem to be heavy-load or stress- induced.

Log entries (seem to all correlate to the simple "sudo ifdown eth0 &&
sudo ifup eth0".  There was nothing in the log pertinent to this problem
prior to my executing ifdown&&ifup.

This is a problem.  How should I debug it?
