That's unusual.  I've got a number of machines on my network here and 
I've got ssh sessions running constantly, for days sometimes.  All these 
machines are running 2.6 kernels.

Are you getting any errors?  Log files or otherwise?  Are your local 
machines using dhcp?  Possibly the lease is up and that's causing the 
problems?  (Grasping some very long straws here...)
