Hello,
  This is not a problem with Xen, but I expect many will come to your site
since the problem only occurs under the xen kernel.  The symptom is networking
fails on a Broadcom 5708 under the Xen kernel (the interface is assigned, you
can ping yourself and that's about it.)

These two links already explain the problem and workaround:

Thought this may help others who search your database.

Eric
