Network Adapter Missing After SP2 Upgrade

[rdhuberman@comcast.net]

After installing SP2 in September, my network adapter disappeared from
the Device Manager, even when "viewing hidden devices".
There is no LAN icon in Network Connections.
The adapter works fine, and so does the network. The connection
instead appears as an IEEE 1394 (firewire) connection, and I can find
the connection details by clicking on "Status" in the context menu of
that connection. But I have no firewire network adapter installed.
Anybody found any post SP2 fixes?
