That's odd. Are you sure you are losing the interface? Is it still
listed in
ifconfig -a
?
If yes, then you haven't "lost" the interface, but it has just ceased to
be default. Check the output of `route`. Or maybe the interface has
been brought down by hotplug or something.
If no, then check whether you need to load the kernel module again.
