A few months ago I had downloaded a JaS 10.4.6 SSE2/SSE3 Intel/AMD build and networking worked fine. After I installed this one, I couldn't get Ethernet to work. In System Preferences Network settings, Network Port Configurations lists Ethernet but unfortunately it is grayed-out and I cannot select it.
Any ideas on how to get this working? All wires are plugged in correctly, Windows XP ethernet worked fine.
