There's no logic in that, man .. what network card are you using? If it
is some cheap rubbish like realtek, intex etc that might be needed
because of a junk card and an even worse driver, but certainly not when
using a decent network card (intel eepro series isnt bad for example)

Initially posted the problem to ubuntuforums but later posted the solution
too. Pls check

Basically restarting the network interface!
