A. Shlomi, a no-name Ethernet card (e.g: those pesky RTL* based)
cost about the same as a movie ticket. In the time you spend
posting and waiting for answers you could have had a new
hardware (which may be usable in the future for other purposes).
B. And from reading the page you pointed to, I truly couldn't
see your diagnostic problem:
1. You say you have another (non-Linux?) host on the same LAN that has
no connection problems.
2. Why don't you try to connect from this host to your Linux box?
E.g: putty from Windows to Linux. Or Knoppix-boot it and test
copying a large file to/from your Mandriva box.
3. If this works -- network card is OK and you have a software problem.
Otherwise, you may continue testing between the two hosts you control.
E.g: running wireshark on both boxen.
Cheers,
