Hello,

for the 3Com Controller you need to have the kernel module 3c59x 
loaded, for the other Controller you need to have the module natsemi 
loaded. Please check via "lsmod" if both modules are loaded.

If both modules are loaded check the /etc/network/interfaces if both 
 interfaces are listed there. Maybe the eth0 is not properly 
configured here. The content of /etc/network/interfaces might help.

Regards
Mirco
