It doesn't look like a data issue, so at this point I'd be breaking out a 
network sniffer to see precisely what's happening, along with a complete 
debug trace ("-d-1" on everything involved i.e. both client and server).  
Keep name resolution turned *off* on the sniffer.

Things like faulty DNS, routing loops, bad cables etc can be damned near 
untraceable at the application level (been there, done that).
