So, post the complete contents of
/etc/network/interfaces.
Also post the output of "ifconfig".
Also post the nic-related output of "lspci".
And perhaps post the output of "lsmod".
If you say so:
The /etc/network/interfaces file as it currently
stands (the only way it will come up);
# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for
ifup(8), ifdown(8)
# The loopback interface
iface lo inet loopback
# The first network card - this entry was created
during the Debian installation
# (network, broadcast and gateway are optional)
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
gateway 192.168.1.2
# iface eth0 inet dhcp
