Hi Alok, If you have more than one network interfaces then it is possible that your network card is identified as eth1. If you are logged in from GUI then open System->Administration->Networking. Please note that the page you mentioned also says that all the steps can be done from GUI. Apart from this I believe that Intex card pretend to be using Realtek chipsets while they are actually not. And there have been many reports of these cards not working on Dapper. Onkar -- Passion - Some people climb mountains - others write Free software. Don't ask why - the reason is the same. -- ubuntu-in mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
