sit0 isn't your actual network interface driver, it's some virtual 
interface or something having to do with ipv6. Apparently you just 
haven't enabled the correct network driver. I don't recall exactly what 
"brand" of hardware the virtual network interface is set up as, but try 
running "lspci" and see if it lists a network device.
