I would start from posting the output of lspci, and by checking the log files in /var/log for possible clues.

When you find what exactly network card you have, check whether there is any information about it in this forum or by searching internet.

Thanks for your reply.
But i am forced to change my hardware for everytime.
So the network card is not hardware specific.
Kudzu software in the past it was responsible.
What will now do this should be done?

Thanks all

A network card is considered 'hardware'. Your problem seems to be that it has not been recognized by the operating system, right?

You need to either do your own homework (search internet with the name of your network card, in part to check whether it is at all supported), or provide *clear* and *complete* information (use my previous post as the place to start). Your posts are very vague. I am not even sure what to make of your last post.
