I had this exact same problem at work, and unfortunately the only solution
that I could come up with is to manually set up the IP information for eth0.
I used the following values:

IP address: 10.0.0.254 (could substitute any number in the range)
Netmask: 255.0.0.0
Gateway: 10.0.0.1
DNS1: 204.147.80.1
DNS2: 206.196.128.1

This would only work of course if you left the default values for the eth0
interface in the router, and at least this would give you access to the 'net
in Linux until some other answer presents itself.
