I would recommend against it (reinstallation) anyways.  Better to find 
out what the problem really is, than to introduce new variables into the 
equation.

Does running nwconfig and rebooting make things work again?  If so, 
something is changing your network setup at run-time.

Can you double check the output from "ifconfig" and "route -n", and the 
contents of /etc/resolv.conf - these are the settings that nwconfig 
modifies.  It also leaves an ".old" version of each file, so we could 
compare what has changed in each.
