Didn't I just help you do the network install? Your network card should already be working. At any rate, you should configure your network card during boot. You have to edit any/all of the following files to get simple networking working. /etc/rc.conf /etc/hosts /etc/resolv.conf /etc/host.conf Read the necessary man pages as well. To learn how to read man pages type 'man man' at the prompt.
