In addition, if you are using DHCP to connect to internet, you need to 
install two more modules, however i do not remember of the names, one 
may be called socket filter, and the other is packet xxx (xxx means i do 
not remember the name).

I have encounter your problem, as others said, you need to know what 
your lan cards are, and load the correct modules. I am using realtek 
8139, what i run modconf and load the modules, the problem is gone.
