The svctag package comes with a small program called nicset.exe, which re-enables the onboard Ethernet on Latitude and Inspiron laptops which have had their EEPROMs wiped. It works like a charm every time.

But you've got to note that the EEPROM also contains the Ethernet controller, and so by shorting and clearing out the EEPROM you effectively render the onboard ethernet port unusable! I havent found a way to reprogram them. The shorting method works perfectly the first time.
