I'm not familiar with this laptop, so here are a few general hints:

A quick google search showed that the ethernet controller should run with the
e100 module. Check with
lsmod if the module has indeed been loaded.
It seems the card is running somehow - how would you explain the 3% of packets that are not lost.

I guess you mean the packet loss. You might use
DMESG or check the logs, to see if there are additional error messages, which might give you a hint.
Trying to start the DHCP client on such a brittle connection will not magically heal it.
And the fact that two different operating systems show the same error pattern does suggest a hardware defect. This may be a defective router, or a bad cable, connector contact problems, and yes, the ethernet assembly might be damaged as well.
