I agree. That's why I'd prefer to just do something simple from the command line or edit a config file.

Quote:run the following:
Code:
nmcli connection show

Here's what I got:

Code:
NAME                   UUID                                  TYPE      DEVICE 

FiOS-QW2C2             43e439c1-0deb-4bef-bf29-865d0b1e435a  wifi      wlp2s0 

Ethernet connection 1  9a0f134d-25df-449e-9b5d-91eb6a5d11d0  ethernet  --     

Wired connection 1     281e9d38-5cd1-32b3-94eb-2a700fffc690  ethernet  --   

Quote:And then run: nmcli connection up 'Wired connection 1' (or whichever you wish to activate)

I tried it and for Ethernet connection 1, and got:

Code:
Error: Connection activation failed: No suitable device found for this connection.

After that, I stopped.

Thank you for your help on this.

For the rest of you following this thread, it may be a while before I can try much else. I just got here, and I have a busy weekend planned, but I will get to all the posts. I really appreciate all the help.

I think I'll try that later if nothing else works. The chip works with the bios on win7.

Thank you.

This will show if the correct logical name 'enp0s25' of your device is listed as up.

Here's what I got:

Code:
DEVICE   TYPE      STATE        CONNECTION 

wlp2s0   wifi      connected    FiOS-QW2C2 

enp0s25  ethernet  unavailable  --         

lo       loopback  unmanaged    --   

Quote:If all this is correct and there is still no connection make sure your firewall is configured correctly. Perhaps you changed it at some point and forgot about it.

Checked it. Proper settings for home computer.

Quote:If all is well there and you are still not connected you can try changing the ifupdown plugin configuration in your /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf file from false to true.

Checked it. It's already configured to true.

Thank you. I feel confident we'll get it this weekend.

HHMM Unavailable... maybe reseat the cable for kicks..
and still be curious if 'ifup' brings it up..

Code:
sudo ifdown enp0s25

then 

sudo ifup enp0s25

Check a few commands - if state changes .... Hoping for UP LOL

No suitable device was found. The issue is with the driver not working/wrong/ or not installed correctly/ or with the device permissions i/e Network Manager permissions to the device. Network Manager seems to be working properly though.

You can check your /etc/network/interfaces file for eth configuration though I expect all is already there properly.

Your probably going to be stuck re-configuring the driver.

Nope, /etc/network/interfaces only had:

Code:
auto lo

iface lo inet loopback

So, I added:

Code:
# manual additions to get ethernet to work

auto enp0s25

allow-hotplug enp0s25

iface enp0s25 inet dhcp

Then ran:

Code:
sudo ifup enp0s25

And got:

Thank you for your help.

I take it, the dkms debian driver didn't work?

I still have wireless and can get by with that for a while, so I'm hoping for something like a simple config setting to fix it before I try changing a kernel driver, even with a deb package. Maybe I'm being overly cautious, but I'm also concerned, even with a new driver, there's still a config issue somewhere.

Did the readouts you asked for tell you anything?

Thank you for everything.

This is awfully dated but have you tried adding: pcie_aspm=off into the kernel parameters? See the old link below:
