Try killing pump:
sudo pump -k

...unloading the 8139too module:
sudo rmmod 8139too

...then reload it:
sudo modprobe 8139too

...then pump again:
sudo pump -i eth0

===========================

Wireless card... first please check the list of wifi cards in the wiki to see if it's known good or hard to configure. Hopefully we'll have something very soon to make everyone's wireless life easier and better supported.

Unloading all the drivers, then reloading them still don't allow the pump.

Are you sure that card works? If you bought it at Best Buy, you can take advantage of their friendly return policy and find one that works with Linux. I can vouch that the Netgear FA511 works without any drama in Linux (including DSL and other distros, as well as FreeBSD and OpenBSD).

Did you get any further with the wireless card? When you have inserted, does it show up as Broadcom (and which version)?
