This network tool is tdenetworkmanager or something else? I assume yes.

You could turn off network manager and try configuring the wired network
manually or via network/interfaces.

This way you prove if it is tdenetworkmanager causing the trouble.

If yes, you could start tdenetworkmanager in the console or from gdb and try
to get some more information on why it crashes.

Watch out using static ips - if you are not the admin, this could cause
collisions.

Let us know what you have found out.
