Subject:   network link getting dropped

after a make buildworld / make installworld and a kernel rebuild on Friday
I have been having trouble with my network connection staying up.

I'm running 2.2.8-stable on a Dell Lattitude CPi (266) and I have a 3Com
3c589-tp pcmcia ethernet card. It seems to occur at irregular intervals
(30 - mins to 4,5 - hours) that my network connection will drop out.
ifconfig still reports a link that is up and netstat reports connections
to other machines. 

If I take the link down via ifconfig can remove the default route, and
then add them both back in the link comes backup. That seems to be the
only way that I can reinstate the network link.

Has anyone else seen this behavior? Has something changed in the ep0 or
pccard card code that could be causing this?

thaniks
