I am still experiencing the same problems but I am seeing some weird messages 
in /var/log/messages:

Jan 15 10:48:32 tsubo-dr kernel: device eth0 left promiscuous mode
Jan 15 10:49:50 tsubo-dr kernel: Removing netfilter NETLINK layer.
Jan 15 10:49:50 tsubo-dr kernel: ip_tables: (C) 2000-2006 Netfilter Core Team
Jan 15 10:49:50 tsubo-dr kernel: Netfilter messages via NETLINK v0.30.
Jan 15 10:49:50 tsubo-dr kernel: ip_conntrack version 2.4 (8192 buckets, 65536 
max) - 304 bytes per conntrack
Jan 15 10:49:56 tsubo-dr kernel: device eth0 entered promiscuous mode
Jan 15 10:50:25 tsubo-dr kernel: device eth0 left promiscuous mode
Jan 15 10:54:08 tsubo-dr kernel: device eth0 entered promiscuous mode
Jan 15 10:54:37 tsubo-dr kernel: device eth0 left promiscuous mode

The loss of connection is happening during the windows when the interface 
enters/leaves promiscuious mode.
