That's, what I really thought, who in the Debian world would want to use
windows anymore? ;-)

Are the periods when your network works fine always the same?
Try something like this:
* after the first problem, turn off your laptop and let it cool (you may
remove your NIC to make it faster - it's a pcimcia, right?),
* if the time when network works fine is longer than when you just reboot
the laptop, it's a clue.

I'm very curious about cause of your problems. Let me now about anything
you discover. It's always better when two heads focus on the same problem.
To the list: does anybody have some new ideas?
