The most likely cause is network IP address issues.  Power-Link is very susceptable to IP address issues.  The most common causes are:

1. IP address conflicts.
2. Laptops being docked, undocked
3. Laptops and PC's going into and out of hybernation.
4. Hubs instead of switchs
5. slow and overloaded switchs
