With multiple machines, and multiple types/brands of ethernet adapters; we just need to find the layer 2 issue you're having that looks almost like either a PHY misconfig/incompatibility or a layer 1 partitioning due to auto-negotiation issues.... I had a problem getting networking up on this box with an nVidia MCP79. It turned out to be a port setting. I had to add this to /etc/rc.d/rc.local: /sbin/ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex full port mii autoneg on /sbin/service network restart /sbin/ifup eth0 It was the 'mii' which was necessary in my case.
