What about DNS issues?  Are you sure that you really have a
networking issue, or are you having intermittent DNS resolution
problems caused by flaky/overloaded/attacked recursivs, EDNS0

This reminded me of another possibility related to NAT table
exhaustion.  Are you running a full recursive resolver on a system
behind the NAT?  Especially one like unbound possibly w/dnssec?  I had
some strange issues caused during the time when unbound was priming
its cache from a cold start...
