Well I didn't know if this was a network problem or hardware, but here goes. I have a rosewill RC-6 MCE infrared remote, this remote works fine. The IR receiver is usb and attached to a 6' cord, every other boot the computer will hang at "eth0: no IPV6 routers present" for around 3 minutes and then boot to the desktop with the mouse and keyboard completely unresponsive. After a restart all boots fine and things are again normal, until the next restart.... If the IR receiver is unplugged the machine works without fail. Though I have also seen this using a Virgin mobile 3G usb dongle made by novatel.
My box is a 3.2ghz p4, 3ghz ddr2 667mhz, biostar 945gc-m4 motherboard, and nvidia gt240 graphics.
Logitech MX5500 usb bluetooth mouse and keyboard.
