We have a host node with 3 VPS servers on it. One of these VPS server for the last few days has been looses network connectivity for no apparent reason and we have not made any changes.

It is however a shared hosting server so higher traffic may be occurring.

I had a thought now of changing the nic from virtio to e1000. Does anyone else notice issues with virtio drivers with increased or high traffic servers?

Thanks
