Its bad though that we have to depend on a PCI card. I do agree, lol. =D

We found a solution for Realtek RTL 8201CL Built-in LAN. This one works with Leopard 10.5.1, as per machead5678, and as with our 10.5.2. Check out this link... http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=100202

Even with this Internet will not work except occationally which is wiered but true!
forcedeth drivers are for nFORCE chipsets...The link that I posted which worked for me is used in my ASUS P5RD1-VM motherboard which has an ATi xpress 200 chipset. Others might want to try that with their RTL 8201CL LAN controller.

naquaada

i have a question to you:
i allready installed your kext, but this works only a few days. when i boot with windows immediately my internet conection disapear (not the conection ethernet).
What do yo think? is my configuration or what?

PD: I have two HD, One IDE 80 GB (OS X first boot) and the other one SATA 320 GB (Windows XP second boot)

What disappears exactly? The network device (hardware), the network settings or the LAN connection? Have you tried to disable/enable the LAN controller in BIOS or could you do a BIOS upgrade? Are you using a router?

Network Diagnostics:
Ethernet Green button
Network Settings Green Button
ISP Gren Button
Internet Failed
Server Failed

About the BIOS, nothing modified. And, yes Im using a router
Thank you, and sorry about my english

this sounds like nothing is wrong with your system setup. sounds like the server you receive internet from is rejecting your inquiry possibly because your two systems mimic each other when connecting and what the server is seeing are issues that routers should fix for you. Are your "DNS Server" and "Search Domains" set up correctly. Some ISPs will do this automatically with DHCP but some don't have that capability yet.

do you have any computers you could test your "network" out with? it sounds like it should work just fine.
