I take it you've power cycled the cable modem when changing the network cards over(no offence, some people no you have to do this, but a lot don't).

Is the Marvell Yukon card built into the motherboard, if not, just replace it. OK it might work with other devices ok, but it's possible that if it's started to go faulty that the volume of traffic from you CM is causing it to fail.
