Hi, Steven!
No, I couldn't solve this problem. Every time I need LAN I have to reboot my 
netbook. Also, I discovered, that if I suspend the operating system (by closing 
the netbook), unplug cable and resume, the system is not crashed: it crashes 
only if I hot-unplug the cable.

It is definitely a bug and should be fixed... Please provide information
about your hardware - maybe it helps developers to fix the bug.

Run:

    lspci | grep -i net

In my case it returns:

    01:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01)
    02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8040 PCI-E 
Fast Ethernet Controller (rev ff)

Also, determine BIOS version by running:

    sudo dmidecode

First lines of the output, in my case, are:

SMBIOS 2.4 present.
17 structures occupying 818 bytes.
Table at 0x000FC520.

Handle 0x0000, DMI type 0, 24 bytes
