I have been stuck at this problem for a number of days, and running out all the possibilities I can think and all the internet resources I googled. I do hope I can see a miracle from this forum helps me settle this issue.
I am within a medium size corporate and running this DELL precision T6710 on linux debian wheezy. The problem is the network is intermittent disconnected somehow with no reason I can think about. The connected and disconnected time is totally random, from a few minutes to several hours. Typically I use ssh to connect from other machines. Sometime a session can last overnight, but sometime only a few minutes. When lost connection, it also depends on the its mood, I may not able to connect to it just a few minutes or a few hours. This is the phenomenon, now I give the detailed information.
First of all, I am running linux debian, `uname -a` outputs:

Well, I am aware of network card intel 82579LM has an issue with network driver, therefore I have download the latest network driver e1000e.3.0.4.1 which was said fixed the problem.
I followed the suggestions some suggestion from some experienced users, let the network-manager taken over control. This is my /etc/network/interfaces:

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

and /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf
Quote:
[main]
plugins=ifupdown,keyfile
[ifupdown]
managed=true
|
And ifconfig:
