Try the following, I've used it countless times on
a lot of cards with around 86.4% success (:-)

$ lspci
        which proves that u're network card in at least
        secured properly in the PCI slot

If u are aware of which card needs which modules, then go ahead
with "modprobe <module name>"

otherwise try the foll:
        $ lsmod (note the putput)
        $ modprobe -t net /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/*
        $ lsmod

If u find that a new modules has been loaded, then u're done.
