Ohh boy.. this can be MANY things :)
Try different cable. Try different card. Try different slot. Try
different port on the hub/switch. Post output of ifconfig -a here for us
to see. Make sure you got your netmask right. Make sure you don't have
ipfw blocking everything (either "modstat" or "ipfw -a l"). Hmm.. what
else.. black magik? I don't think it supports CNET cards. *grin*
Are you trying to ping IP or hostname? Try pinging ip instead of
hostname (might be dns problem). Make sure you don't have irq conflict
("dmesg | grep irq"). Let us know if any of the above work...
