Hi
From your description it looks like there are more problems combined or
connected.
I would recommend to first check just your serial connection to next hop
with whatever tools available and only then to try resolving that
"destination unreachable- admin prohibited" problem.

Can you show some longer ping output ? 80% loss can be 4 of 5 packets
missing but that shows nothing, longer ping run may show some
non-randomness (like line protocol going up and down you describe) maybe
pointing to encapsulation problems...
You could also try to ping with packets of small and larger sizes and
look for CRC errors...
If the packet loss is completely random, could be
hardware/cable/noise/whatever problem.

if you see interface going up down up down, it can be anything from
hardware to encapsulation.
maybe if you reconnected the old cisco router and tried "sh interfaces
serial", "show controllers serial" and similiar debugging
commands, and
then tried checking against output of debugging tools for your new card,
it would show some differences in setup.
hardware or encapsulation problems could confuse upper layers to the
point that other side of the link now refuses to forward packets for
you...> Any ideas would be appreciated.
And if you''ve got lots of time, and proper cables and experience, you
could try to connect your card directly to your old router and test your
card and setup locally, but that would require you to really know what
you are doing.
