#l and #l0 are identical, the latter is the software (for want of a
better term) instance of the latter, #1 is the second and #2 is the
third.

If you read the man page carefully - and I'm answering this not out of
 experience, but because I presume you want to at least try a
suggestion and go from there - you'll see that you may need to
describe each net adapter in the plan9.ini file. If you read the
/dev/kmesg file, you ought to find mention of #l0, #l1 and #l2 in it,
if the adapters are recognise.

(Careful now, I'm still drinking my first coffee of the day - but
everything you need is in the man pages.)
