Isn't etch and Xen 3.0 somewhat old?

On Redhat, as I recall some really old version had this problem with
certain NICs. I think it's NIC driver problem (something about it not
supporting bridge or vlan properly). Upgrading to latest version fixed
it.

In your case, you might want to try using Lenny, or try another NIC.
