I'm not sure if this would have anything to do with your problem, but I
was having some really serious network issues between a VMWare WinXP VM
and it's Linux host until I ran the following commands on the host:
/usr/sbin/ethtool -K eth0 tso off
/usr/sbin/ethtool -K eth0 tx off

I don't honestly have a clue what they mean, or what they do, but they
solved my issue.
