Do you think it could be the actual network card that's bad and not the
drivers?? I'm pretty sure that the machine recognizes the name and brand of
the card in the network configuration panel in KDE. I have several other
cards (alas, all of them are the same type). Do you think I should swap the
card first or try a different driver?

Muchas gracias se=F1ores,

Russell
