easy, type you're command like this:
lsmod > outfile.txt
that tells the shell to redirect stdout (standard output) to the file outfile.txt.

not if you have no filtering setup. I think that's right. okay, so use that command above to send us the output of lsmod and ifconfig. also you might include
dmesg | grep eth[01] > outfile.txt
as that might have some info as to why you have eth 0 and 1.
You say you can ping outside addresses? and dns works to? such as
ping www.google.com
works for you?
what is output from wget or apt-get ?
