If I ping the VM a lot of packet didn't get an echo reply.

Does the ping directly to IP address too gives the same issue ?
sometimes DNS is a pain...
also on the domU side, try commenting out the complete resolv.conf
just to take DNS out of the way and try direct IP ping.

you can also on the domU side run a tcpdump and check why the particular
icmp sequence number is missing. you can see the replies from domU and
if the reply does not come to the dom0, then there could be a problem with
xen.

I've tried to switch the networking to 'route' from 'bridge', but it
didn't help. Any suggestions?
