1) Could be the interrupt controller hardware. Try using another IRQ.

2) Could be from something on the network. Does it still happen if you are
disconnected from the net?

3) Sometimes other devices, especially older ones have flaws which cause
them to step on I/O addresses, DMA lines, and IRQ lines that they're
really not using. Some of the jumperless ones do this. I have gone as far
as taking a knife to them and permanently removing the connection to
unused IRQ lines. 

4) Make sure your network broadcast, mask, etc. values are correct.
ifconfig will tell you this.
