Nothing of the OS is likely doing this. Drivers for the NICs MAYBE,
the NICs, the switch itself probably.
It's a hardware problem most likely and it sounds like the only thing
you didn't switch was the switch <grin>
Also, it might be another machine on the same leg of the switch but
it sounds like you covered that with a different port.
