"Sorry, the only reason i'm editing them is because i have to plug in the desktop with debian, run the commands, then plug this laptop in and manually type all the things that come up which sucks with log files heh."
One more question to answer, please. Are you using a router or are you plugging directly into a cable/dsl modem? This just looks suspiciously like the problems I had with moving a wireless bridge between two Linux boxes. I think it could also happen with two different machines that have the same machine name. The first one the router sees works just fine, but the second is flaky as hell.

If you are using Gnome's network-manager, you may have found a bug in it. The bug report, http://packages.debian.org/testing/net/network-manager , and http://bugs.debian.org/network-manager shows a very large number of errors. The one about disconnecting came from it. You could try removing network-manager and doing the configuration of your network from the command line. It is mostly editing /etc/network/interfaces and running /etc/init.d/networking restart. |

Personally I would plug in another NIC card.. like a 3Com or Intel, then SSH to the box, you can then run your commands, and copy and paste them on the other machine.. figure out what the problem is, get the on-board NIC working, then pull the add in NIC .. |

I think this bug listing might resolve your issue..
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=522592

If you remove TULIP, remove DMFE, and load DMFE you can get internet

rmmod tulip
rmmod dmfe
modprobe dmfe
then see if you can get an address.. if that works then blacklist the tulip module... |

i added the entry "blacklist tulip" to the bottom of /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist , but upon reboot the same previous condition occurs.
contents of /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
Code:
# This file lists modules which will not be loaded as the result of

# to load them. It does not affect autoloading of modules by the kernel.
# This file is provided by the udev package.

blacklist evbug
# these drivers are very simple, the HID drivers are usually preferred
blacklist usbmouse

Sorry looks like my blacklist directions are incorrect..
follow this guide instead to properly blacklist that module.
