Not sure if this'll help but something that happens to me under 6.0 on my
laptop sounds similar to this one, but only if u use DHCP. For some reson
if the '/sbin/pump' program hangs, it hangs the whole cardmgr thread. If u
don't use DHCP then it shouldn't be a problem. Check if there is a process
called pump running in the background.
Just a thought..
