Anymore information you give cannot do anything but help us help you. The more information I have, the more accurate my picture of the situation is, and the better I can troubleshoot.
That's why I asked if the Netcard has been replaced yet.

If the Netcard is totally fine and dandy, then it's a software issue, and not particularly hardware.

And regarding your callcenter comments, you are correct. majority of help desk personel etc. don't even have CompTIA A+/ETA-I CST.

I know this, because several friends from HS are working as help desk clerks, and barely know how to install a video game following onscreen directions. They even take apart people's computers they bring in, without a clue of what they are looking at. As long as they have a paper of descriptions on what parts of the computers look like.
