My Router acts as a DHCP server, so I have all the settings set to DHCP. But
I don't think that's the problem. Even entering the Gateway with the Router
address as Static doesn't stop the crashing and hanging.

okay! Any ideas now? More and more I'm convinced that this is some software
problem on my end, and not a networking problem per se.
