Hello and thanks for reading. I have been having this problem for about two weeks now where Debian's network and internet connection randomly fails. It works perfectly fine and hosts all the services I need for a while, and then without warning all network connectivity fails. I can't ping any other network device. Regardless of how much I try to fix it, the only thing that works is restarting the computer. First, the server went 7 days without a problem; then 5 days; now it lasted 2 days. Judging from my Teamspeak server logs, it crashed today at 12:31. I grep'd through my log files and found this information:

Relevant lines may be 4, 27, and 52.
When I installed Debian 6.01 via netinstall a few weeks ago, I had it set to dhcp but changed it to a static address later. Here's my network configuration:
ifconfig

And here's the lshw output about the card:

Any help would be appreciated!
