RealTech 8139 NIC is not detected by EL5

Hi All,

My RealTech 8139 NIC is not detected by EL5, so I couldn't use the Internet. Could anyone give me an exact solution?.

Thanks.

RealTech 8139 NIC's can be unpredictable as to whether or not you will have problems getting them to work.

In a terminal, try 'modprobe 8139too' and 'modprobe 8139cp' to see if either of those two drivers work in RHEL.
