I was having lots of trouble with NFS when it was being carried over a
wireless link (a wireless bridge between my upstairs and downstairs). I
was getting the same errors you're getting.

I fixed it by using NFS over tcp - it defaults to UDP. If you add the
"tcp" option to the mount options, it will use TCP. You may want to give
that a try.
Thanx for the suggestion - already using it.  Not fixed yet . . .

I can NOT figure out what the deal is here! I do see messages from time to time from my network card - showing auto-negotiation messages to 100BaseT full duplex. I don't know why this would happen - unless some thing is causing the link to fail and re-connect?
