I've never used dhcp so I don't know how it integrates with /etc/hosts.
If eth0 was setup manually, your /etc/hosts file would look something
like mine:

127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain   localhost
192.168.1.1     debian.planet           debian

If your network is planet, and this box on your network is debian, then
having that show in your /etc/hosts file as 127.* will be a source of
confusion or errors.  You need them to point to your network.

Since it is your network, can you try manually configuring it and not
use dhcp to see if the problem persists?

hey Doug, i setup the network manually and it exactly looks like the
"/etc/hosts" you have shown here :-)

i have added "blacklist ipv6"  to "/etc/modprobe.d/aliases" as
previously i had issues with it.  Internet is running as fast as on
other distros :-)

many thanks for you help :-)
