copied of correctly, wife reading off computer me across room.

edit /etc/network/interfaces file. there eth0 should lines like:

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

if configure net through dhcp or:

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.41
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
gateway 192.168.1.1

if configure static ip

if in file looks normal, try command:
sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
output of command may helpfull
