Hello
To create a cheap machine I followed a recipe that stated that the network card from TrendNet PCITXR was supposed to work out of the box. This is not the case for me.
I can see the card, but it will never get a valid IP. On DHCP, it will get a default 169.254.xxx.xxx but this cannot be an address from my router, because it will give adresses in 192.168.0.1xx. The light stays yellow.
If I try to setup everything with manual options, I can get it to have a green light, but I still dont have any access to the web.
Router and internet are working fine for other computer (PC) in the house.
Did I miss a magic step ?
