Hmmm, this may indicate that there is an ethernet cable problem. Use 'netstat -I interface' (where interface is the interface name shown by 'ifconfig -a') to see if the interface error count is increasing. If you are using a "smart" switch, use the switch admistrative interface and see if the error count is increasing for the attached switch port. Unfortunately your host can only see errors for packets it receives and it may be that errors are occuring for packets it sends. If the ethernet cable is easy to replace, then it may be easiest to simply replace it and use a different switch port to see if the problem just goes away.
