VMWare 5

We just set up a new server a few weeks ago. For some reasone the NIC seems to be going to sleep, we can't ping, attach to the server, or access any of the applications. As soon as I open a console session from VCenter the NIC starts responding. We've tried removing and reinstalling the NIC, Removed VMTools and reinstalled. Checked the power settings for the server and NIC. We're at the point of just rebuilding it but I'd like to see if there's anything else you might suggest before we go down that route.
