Ok. I installed kernel 4.11 from here: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.11-rc8/
These packages: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.11-rc8/linux-headers-4.11.0-041100rc8_4.11.0-041100rc8.201704232131_all.deb http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.11-rc8/linux-headers-4.11.0-041100rc8-generic_4.11.0-041100rc8.201704232131_amd64.deb http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.11-rc8/linux-image-4.11.0-041100rc8-generic_4.11.0-041100rc8.201704232131_amd64.deb Booted into 4.11, confirmed it was 4.11, the adapter was plugged. Same thing: it wouldn't show a link. Changed to the other adapter, and it worked instantly and got an IP Address. But now I got some more data for the non-working AX88772 adapter: == ethtool eth1 == Settings for eth1: Supported ports: [ TP MII ] Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full Supported pause frame use: No Supports auto-negotiation: Yes Advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full Advertised pause frame use: No Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes Speed: 10Mb/s Duplex: Half Port: MII PHYAD: 16 Transceiver: internal Auto-negotiation: on Supports Wake-on: pg Wake-on: d Current message level: 0x00000007 (7) drv probe link Link detected: no == mii-tool -v eth1 == eth1: no link product info: vendor 00:0e:c6, model 8 rev 1 basic mode: autonegotiation enabled basic status: no link capabilities: 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HD 10baseT-FD 10baseT-HD advertising: 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HD 10baseT-FD 10baseT-HD link partner: 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HD 10baseT-FD 10baseT-HD flow-control == lshw -C network == (sorry for the pt-br words - I did not notice at the time.

I just updated from Ubuntu 16.04 to 16.10 then 17.04. When I updated to 17.04 it just stopped initializing the dongle; in ethtool and mii-tool it shows no link detected, although it is connected and works in dual-booted Windows. I ruled out networkmanager idiosyncrasies of "managed" and "not managed" because I configured it both ways and tried also with ifupdown and directly with ifconfig up and dhclient. And then I changed the model to another ethernet USB adapter and it worked. This is the dmesg entry for the ASIX adapter: [ 31.137223] usb 1-6: New USB device found, idVendor=0b95, idProduct=772a [ 31.137225] usb 1-6: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 [ 31.137226] usb 1-6: Product: AX88x72A [ 31.137227] usb 1-6: Manufacturer: ASIX Elec. Corp. [ 31.137228] usb 1-6: SerialNumber: 000002 Model no: KY-AX88772ALF on the side of the device. I am currently reporting this bug without the adapter connected, because I would have no network. So if you need additional data from it just say what you need, I am using Ubuntu 17.04 64 bits. --- ApportVersion: 2.20.4-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USUÁRIO PID ACESSO COMANDO /dev/snd/controlC0: patola 20818 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC1: patola 20818 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: Unity:Unity7 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 17.04 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=43970c80-83be-4fe7-95d3-ff85da5efe72 InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-11-16 (1629 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release amd64 (20121017.5) IwConfig: enx00e04d680249 no wireless extensions. lo no wireless extensions.
