If it helps any, I would comment that,IIRC, when I set up a dual boot system,
I was a bit surprised to see that network settings in Windoze and Debian could, IIRC, effect each other.
My memory may not be totally accurate but they did seem to interact.
That is, IIRC, I had set a static IP on one system and it ended up being applied
to the other one. I'd look for a network configuration "thing" that may not be
stored on disk or reset during OS init. I guess those cards do have EEPROM but
I have no idea what, besides maybe a MAC addres, is in them.
Not sure if this is possible but it is what I remember. I think there
were also issues with clock settings but again my memory isn't real clear.

In any case, at least check your network settings. It it possible someone changed
something "irrelevant" during setup.
