Well, if I am going to buy an Ethernet card, I'll probably buy a higher
quality one, which will last longer. I'm still not sure this is the problem
I'm experiencing.

I can connect from my Linux host to the Internet fine, it's only one
particular remote host (www.shlomifish.org) that causes problems.
Furthermore, I can connect from my Linux host to/from any other host in my
LAN. The problem is between the Linux machine and a particular host on the
Internet - sometimes other hosts like Google.
