My random thoughts...

(You mean routed.)
I'm always suspicious of RIP. It's so easy for
a rouge device to mess up the whole network.
You might examine RIP logs. Just a thought.
Now, every once in while I get errors like:
PING 200.132.120.2 (200.132.120.2): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: No route to host
ping: wrote 200.132.120.2 64 chars, ret=-1

I know there is an arp entry for the IP address above.
You could prove it by manually locking an entry in the arp
table and seeing if that makes the problem go away.
I would be really thankful to anyone that can suggest some
possible reason, test, insight.
Bad port on a switch?
