I found errors in the event log that led me to some evidence that the
on-board NIC in this server has issues when combined with certain
routers and switches. Not enough info out there to know what combos
work and what don't, unfortunately. 

I've ordered a USB NIC and Cat6 to replace the Cat5e and hopefully that
will eliminate the problem. In the meantime, I've installed the slower
USB NIC I already have and it hasn't happened since. Only one day, but
I am hopeful that this is the right solution.

Am I going to lose much speed on a USB Gigabit adapter versus the
on-board one?
