Depends how technical you are.. you might be better off paying the $100.
 
Did you check to see if the ethernet card was installed within Windows?
Run an IPCONFIG when you have it connected.
Are you conencting to a router or directly to your ISP connection? (Modem)
 
Sounds like you need someone on-site to take a look at it and figure it out if you're unable to.

You gotta remember. . . Geeksquad is a business. Not a free troubleshooting service. Of course they want to come out and help for money.  
 
In the Device manager any errors on the NIC? Are the correct drivers loaded?
Can you do an IP config or run a loopback ping to the NIC?
