The problem happened on (at least) two different switches from different
manufacturers (Transtec and Netgear).

FWIW, the problem just happened on another machine (with same hardware)
this morning. It is running Ubuntu with kernel 3.5.0-31-generic.

How exactly do I do that? Is disconnecting the faulty computer and
connecting my laptop in its place right?
