hi there
somehow my first post was deleted without any notification...so i try it again

I did a fresh gentoo install on a system that i allready have a working configuration. somehow after my installation there is no network device working and there is no eth0 listed when i try
Code:
ifconfig -a


the driver is built in the kernel and it seems in use
Code:
lspci -k
results in

Code:


03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 07)
        Subsystem: Sony Corporation Device 90ab
        Kernel driver in use: r8169



i did install all again step by step as its written in the handbook but i had no success and i dont know what should be the next steps to fix this issue.

i remember when i buyed this machine in october 2012 i had no problems with that and its about my 4th machine i did install and configure gentoo successfully before

thx for any help in advance

What is the systems response for.
Code:
ifconfig eth0

Could you past your dmesg output?

Maybe try recompile the kernel with r8169 as a module ?

casualx,

Whit is your interface called? On a new install it will not be eth0.
Look in
Code:
ifconfig -a


From
Code:
03:00.0 Ethernet controller
I guess ep3s0, or something like that.
