Do you have any Linux PV domains?
If you install the debug version of the driver then you'll get info
written to /var/log/xen/qemu-dm-<domUname>.log which might show
something useful
Also, try turning off all the offload functions in the advanced
properties of the network adapter under Linux.
Does your Dom0 have any GRE tunnels? I have seen problems when these are
used before, but that's a Dom0 routing interaction with checksum
offloading.
