Eventually I want to get the wireless interface working as well. But for now just want to get the wired network connection going so I can update the system, sort out the other sata controller (have two more drives to bring on line), then get mythtv loaded and running. >From the documentation it appears that the wired and wireless interfaces can work at the same time. They show the board being used in an access point configuration with connection over the wired interface to the Internet. I was discouraged not to find marvell chip set mentined in the network gui tool as hardware that could be added to the system. I did search on the web prior to purchasing the board and it appeared that there was a driver for that network chip set already built into Fedora. So what else should I try? One option I have is to pull a NIC from another system and use that at first. However I would like to get the built in interfaces working. :) -- Scot L.
