Hello All,
My laptop's NIC is a Marvell 88E8057 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller. Here recently, for no obvious reason, my ethernet connection just seems to stop working. Sometimes ifconfig eth0 down/up will fix it, but most of the time the reboot will do it. It will continue working for a random amount of time which is usually less than thirty minutes. When I put in my Windows 7 hard drive and the connection stays up without issues. This leads me to believe that it is not hardware related.
Here is the info from ifconfig:
Anyone have any idea about what may be going on?
