This sounds familliar...
The last time I installed, which was about a year ago, the 8139 was
built in to 9load but not into the actual kernel, producing the
symptoms you describe. I'd try building a new kernel, making sure that
it has the 8139 driver.
Once I had a proper kernel, I didn't have to do anything to plan9.ini.
