Coincidence...? Well here I have a eee PC 701 with on-board Atheros L2 etc etc.
Recently tried a couple of Linux Live distros on USB stick as they are always being
raved about. One of them didn't want to use the wireless so I plugged in hard-wired
Ethernet and it worked fine.
When I Re-booted to Windows 2000 sp4, which is on the SDD of the eee PC, behold:
the Ethernet is apparently dead, although Windows just says it is disconnected.
No lights on the router though :-( Have I just trashed Ethernet on my eeePC..?
