This should show interfaces that are down, as well as those that are up.
"lo" is the loopback interface and has nothing to do with your NIC.
Use lsmod to check to see if a module is loaded for your NIC also.
You might also find and post the relevant section of the output lf lspci,
especially if you don't know what your NIC is, or which module should be
loaded.
