Hi kranthi,

search for network driver and select the ej3020 network driver, i m not sure the number of the driver details.

A common ic used for ethernet interfacing is the Realtek RTL8019.
Download the data sheet for this ic and you will find all the info you need.

in any network kard there are:
1)any connnector e.g Rj45
2)one magnet which is between Rj45 and physical layer IC
3)one PHY IC-> physical layer
4)one MAC IC-> MAC layer
somtimes the PHY IC and MAC IC are integrated in one IC
any question?
