Network issues - no IP/self assiged IP

Hello all. About a year after I gave up in frustration on OSX86 stuff I decided to try it again. I installed 10.6.6i and it works perfectly - well almost. The only issue I have is with my NIC. I installed the rtl1000 kext and it recognizes it. The model, MAC address etc. The problem is that when I use DHCP settings it is assigned a generic "self assigned" IP. If I do a manual setup with a static IP etc, it shows that it is connected but it really isn't. It is not listed in my router as an attached device. It won't ping the router or any other device on the network. The NIC works fine under Windows so I know the cable is good. It's almost like a firewall is blocking it. Any ideas on what the issue could be? I appreciate any help. Other than this issue everything seems to work perfectly.

***UPDATED***

I tried one other thing. I plugged my Motorola SB5101 modem in with USB. It was recognized immediately but with the same results. Works perfectly in Windows 7. Now I'm stumped. Help?

sudo ifconfig en0 lladdr 00:13:74:75:11:08

find out your mac adress this is my mac adress and with a script this works for me! delete the mac and write your mac if its work write back and we make a automatic startup boot script!

if the first command not run try this alternative
sudo ifconfig en1 down
sudo ifconfig en1 lladdr 00:13:74:75:11:08
sudo ifconfig en1 up

write back if its work !!!

Fix for you.

I have the R1000 nic in my machine and it also used to work for about 10 mins under load then stop - the modem light would flash constantly but no traffic would be transfered.,

The Solution.

Remove the R1000.kext from your /Extra/E and /S/L/Ext/ folders and install this new one.

you know its the newer one as it has SL on the end (i.e R1000SL.kext)


Worked like a charm for me and is flawless in the operation of the card now.
