Is the network card working?  As root type ifconfig .  There should be a
eth0 there.  If not, then you may need to dig a little deeper as to why
it is not there.  But if you do see eth0, then I would try and ping the
ip address that is on the adapter.  Let us know what you find out.

This should get you a good starting point.
