* [gentoo-user] NIC works fine with Gentoo Live CD, not so good without.

Ok gang, this one absolutely boggles me.

My system:

AMD64 w/1.5G RAM, 200G HD, Audigy2, Realtek NIC, nVidia 6800GS.

So, here's my NIC as it appears in lspci (both with the Live CD, and my
current install):

02:03.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)

And the driver:

8139too 28992 0

Now then... as of 2 days ago, I've been noticing that my ethernet has
been acting really whacky, with random ping times and flaky web surfing.
Example ping:

jmg ~ # ping yahoo.com -c 10
PING yahoo.com (66.94.234.13) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from w2.rc.vip.scd.yahoo.com (66.94.234.13): icmp_seq=1 ttl=47

time=164 ms
64 bytes from w2.rc.vip.scd.yahoo.com (66.94.234.13): icmp_seq=10 ttl=48
time=833 ms

--- yahoo.com ping statistics ---
10 packets transmitted, 10 received, 0% packet loss, time 9027ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 85.529/492.918/833.156/309.889 ms

Look at those times. Strange eh? Even more strange, I get a nice even
30-40ms ping when booting with the AMD64 Gentoo CD, so I've ruled out
that my NIC card could be broken. I've also checked my iptables to make
sure nothing's being blocked/dropped, and that looks fine.

Here's ifconfig:

jmg ~ # ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:13:D4:63:AB:45
inet addr:192.168.100.69 Bcast:192.168.100.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)

Look at eth0. Errors? Drops? Overruns? Why? What could be wrong with
this NIC all of the sudden? Again, I have 0 problems when booting the
same exact setup with the Live CD.

After doing some simple troubleshooting, I'll admit, I'm stumped. Any
idea why my NIC works great with the Live CD and not with my currently
running system?
