It could also be simply a dead NIC. If you've had trouble with your cable modem, it might have been some kind of power surge coming thru the cable (or even a surge on the network <i>from</i> the cable modem). Your NIC may not have survived unscathed. I suggest disabling (or removing) the NIC you're using and trying another one. Fry's, Wal-Mart, and Radio Shack all have excellent return policies, so if it turns out it's not a dead NIC, just return the new one and keep troubleshooting.
