Hello, I'm not sure if this is the problem or not, but can you check what chipset is used on the Linksys board? My guess it might be RealTek 8139 based. If so, it is possible that this is the problem. While I know that this is an officially supported chipset, we've had terrible reliability problems locally with these boards (regardless of manufacturer or operating system). Almost all that we have put into production (in excess of 50) eventually have failed. The failure mode is often not hard - instead you get intermittent errors that appear to be OS problems initially.
Anyway, just a guess - if indeed your board is based on this chipset, it could be interesting to swap it with something else to see if that fixes the problem.
