Are you sure routing is setup correctly and that the interface is really
up? I don't think the problem's with that, but you can have a look at
it. Also check the cable. It might just be a broken wire or an
incompatibility (sounds strange, but I've got some cards that don't
work with certain cables that other cards accept without a hiccup).
You might also try that Realtek card. Bad as the chip is, if it works
there's probably something wrong with the current NIC.
