The network did not work when the LiveCD was booted. |

In fact, the port is active because the external connection LED is |
| 4 |
active, and my DHCP server sees the hardware, and passes along the |
| 5 |
correct IP to the hardware's MAC. It shows up as active in my DHCP tables. |

In Gentoo, I have tried manually configuring it with ifconfig and tried |
| 8 |
dhcpcd to no success. I've also tried to set the nameservers. It says |
| 9 |
that the host name is unreachable when I attempt a ping. |
