I had similar problems with my server and first thing I did was to hook
it up to Monitor and keyboard (serial is good too).
In my case, it was (probably) network cable loosing connection. I new
that once I was able to access server via keyboard and still had no
connection. But in my case both NIC and switch showed connection just
not blinking.
Did reboot help? Can you prepare another switch and LAN cable? Or maybe
cheep router so you can connect them directly and try to ping router
(set it on the same subnet).
NIC starting to broke can also be an issue, but you should also try
looking for newer NIC drivers in ELRepo repository, some drivers have
small bugs.
Upgrading from 5.5 to 5.7 might also solve your problem, is it is a
driver problem and not hardware.
