I'd also like to know. I have the same problem with my cable modem,
somtimes it just loses the ability to talk with the NIC. I'm going to
try removing and reinserting the module for the NIC into the kernel nex
time in an attempt to reinitialize whatever magic happens when we reboot
but I don't have any high hopes.
