I just fixed a problem similar to this today.  Why this happened I don't
know, but I had an IRQ conflict with my CD-ROM and the third serial
port.  It caused ed0 timeouts and all sorts of other weirdness to occur,
which went away as soon as I fixed the conflict.  The ethernet card is
jumpered to IRQ 10, so I don't know why it would care but as soon as the
problem was fixed my ethernet speed jumped up to a nice respectable
700+K/sec.

Maybe this helps?
