Is there any reason why you're not letting it autodetect (which is
what it does by default, or with media autoselect). Make sure it's
plugged in, make sure the link light is lit. Try to ping somebody
on the network (or run tcpdump on the interface). You can't just
sit there and look at it: you have to experiment.
