Here goes:

Netgear FA311 replaced my old nic

lspci identifies the card

Compiled Realtek Semiconductor as a module

Added natsemi as a module in modules.autoload/kernel-2.6

modprobe natsemi gives no error

both net.eth0 and net.eth1 displayed an error that the network interface does not exist (from previous nics).

did ln -s net.lo net.eth2

updated my conf.d/net pointing static ip and routes to net.eth2

net.eth2 displays error stating that the network interface does not exist.

Any help is most welcome

cheers

have a look at the file
/etc/udev/70-persistent-net.rules


this is the file that deals with which eth# the card is identified as

just find the one that matches the mac and try that
