Hello, I am a long-time Windows user, who is now getting started with =
learning FreeBSD.  I am using the KDE desktop to start with.  I would =
like to know how to configure my nic card so I can get connected to the =
internet (Cable access - the system is on a LAN).

Where do I get started configuring this card?
