Well, after some googling, I think the issue is with the tg3 module. Most of 
the post that I read are out of date and for kernals 2.4.20 and below. I am 
using 2.4.29 right now, so the driver should have been fixed. However, I am 
going to try the bcm5700 module tomorrow and see if that works.

Thanks,
Chris
