RE: Ethernet Error
Try as root
/sbin/route add -net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 window 16384 eth0
assuming your eth0 has an IP in the range 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254
If that works fine then add it to something in /etc/init.d

Ok. That sounds like a plan. When I run route, I see an entry for the
localnet associated with eth0 and an entry for the lo (no gateway assigned
to either). I'm not completly familiar with route tables. Could I get a hand
with them?
What shows for route is:
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref
Use Iface
locatnet * 255.255.255.224 U 0
0 1 eth0
127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0
0 1 lo
I might also add that the activity LED for the on the card ON solid.
