System looses network connection

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could help me out with this problem. I have SCO 5.0.5 installed on a system that I am using 3c905b (3 Com) network card. This system is always powered on. After no certain time period this NIC doesn't work. I can't ping to this system from any other machine or vice versa. I have noticed as well that terminal 1 locks at this point. I checked the /usr/adm/messages file to see if the system is writing a message of some sort about the error but nothing. If I reboot they system everything is good for a certain time period and then it goes down again. Can anyone shed some light on this?
