I'm installing Gentoo.  The Live CD 1 autodetect my NIC and load the module 8139too 
(the same I successfully use in my Debian).  At startup it says:

    Network device eth0 detected, DHCP broadcasting for IP....          [ ok ]

I'm in a LAN with DHCP.  I use DHCP in Windows.  But it doesn't work on Gentoo:

    # ping 212.79.128.2
    connect: Network is unreachable
    # net-setup eth0

212.79.128.2 is my ISP.  In net-setup I choose "Use DHCP to auto-detect my network 
seetings".  Then

    # ifconfig
    lo    [...]

It only shows lo and not eth0.

What is wrong?  How to make DHCP work?  Tell me if I must provide more information.  
TIA.
