This was exactly the sequence of events on the Linksys card I wrote about when we were discussing bad NICs a little while back. You could ping it to start with and then it would lock up later. If the manufacturer had purposely set out do devise a card which would waste the maximal time in the field they could hardly have done better than Linksys did with those NICs.
