This sounds a whole lot like my DHCP problem. It was being 
discussed on this list earlier last week. I have attached my thread for your perusal.

I have the same ethernet card as you. There is a 
workaround in the attachment that I am using (I also
created a script to do it) but if someone comes up 
with a real fix it would be muck better.

Read through my attachment and see if you think we 
have the same problem.
