This sounds vaguely familiar... Based on my previous experience, I'd say
your problem has nothing to do with CVS. It's your network card's driver.
Update it or get a new NIC. (I had very similar problems with a 3Com
3c905 Boomerang a while back. Replaced it with an EtherExpress Pro and
haven't had so much as a hiccup since.)
