On an assumption that this interface is correctly configured (an address without typos, right network) that says something, doesn't it? Your hardware appears to be ok, because of F13, so apparently its driver went south. 'lsmod' presumably lists it as loaded and in use, right? The situation possibly generated some additional info in dmesg and/or /var/log/messages. Did you check? What 'ifconfig eth0' has to say about RX and TX? It is not a great surprise that DHCP does not work, or works erraticaly, if your connection is basically shot. That would be a serious bug.
