These sound like problems with HAL.  Inspect the output of HAL (I think it's
lshal) and see what it's reporting for your CPU.  If you don't enable one of
the two current network management backends (NM or WICD) then how do you
expect to get functionality?  You should be able to see the network devices
using solid-hardware.  If not inspect the output of HAL again to see if it's
reporting anything.
