I was having some similar issues with my quad port Pro 1000 card, is it possible to upgrade to a quad port i350 card? Not sure how available some of this stuff is in your country, but I've been pretty lucky with ebay stuff usually shipped from China. Just look at the pictures really well to make sure you don't get a counterfeit card, there are apparently a lot of fakes out there. I got lucky with mine and they were both cheap too.
Intel i225/226 cards can sometimes be found cheap too.
If you have to buy new, so far the 10GTek i350 card that I bought has been working fine, speeds and support seem to be the same as the real Intel branded i350 that I bought used for my personal lab. The 10GTek was for the work production machine and has been good for the last about 4 months that it has been in service.
