I too see this under heavy network load on an up to date Lucid on my
Lenovo Thinkpad x201s. This uses the same driver and is the same model
but slightly different lspci output. It works mostly ok, then will drop
the connection completely, causing network hangs. Eventually it comes
back on its own.

Excerpted dmesg:
