I don't have the hardware, but it sure sounds like flaky hardware.
Just for yucks, though: Ever check the ARP cache? Maybe something's
poisoning it. If you can type at it in the failed state without
un-failing it and covering the tracks, type "arp -n". Do so in a
working state as well, of course. (The -n is so it doesn't try a
DNS query, which might muddy the waater.)
Or set up a job somewhere that does -not- cause any network traffic
(e.g., writes to a file but not over a network connection to your
screen) that periodically appends the output of arp to a file. Maybe
once every ten minutes or so.
Might tell you nothing, but if it changes when the failure happens...
