NOOB help with ethernet realtek 8111D and bonjour

[jojocommi]

Hi Guys,

 

I apologize if this is the wrong place to ask my question but I am at a loss with my situation.

 

I have snow leopard 10.6.1 installed and running thanks to Digital Dreamer's and the community's help.

 

I have almost everything running perfectly except for two key features.

 

I do not know how to make the ethernet work. I checked online and know that I have two realtek 8111D cards/chips and am using the realtek 1000kext but it does not work for me.

 

I tried reading other posts discussing similar issues but nothing seemed to make sense to me. Now there is a discussion about how the ifconfig method works along with a packaged snowR1000 and I tried the installer and the ifonfig but still nothing. Of course I have little idea as to what I am doing but either way these kexts are not working for me.

 

Strangely enough I have wireless working with the RAlink wireless utility but at times it gets laggy and I tend to lose connection randomly.

 

This is the reason why I would like to have ethernet.

 

I never really wanted bonjour until I needed to use my phone and printer which the printer is detected but cannot print wirelessly.

 

I am using a Linksys WRT610N Simultaneous Dual-N Band Wireless Router.

 

Could anyone provide some insightful advice/suggestions as to what I should do and keep in mind that I am still a noob so please explain in detail.

 

Also before anyone asks about x32 and x64, I assume I am running x64 and do not know how to run in x32.

 

Look at my signature for my hardware info.

 

I included my boot cache log just incase it helps

 

Thanks.
