Steven Goris, as per http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/N56VZ/#support an update is available for your BIOS (217). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate , does it change anything?
If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags removed: upstream-bug ** Tags added: bios-outdated-217 needs-upstream-testing regression-potential ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1175759 Title: Atheros AR9161 Ethernet Gigabit adapter works till suspend Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: My Ethernet adapter in my N56-VZ only works till the computer suspends, after that it's not recognized anymore. It just disapeared from ifconfig and I can't use it anymore. There is no eth0 anymore. I am now on Ubuntu 13.04 linux version 3.8.0-19-generic #29-Ubuntu SMP. I tried the 3.9.0-030900 mainline kernel, but this doesn't fix the problem. it seems it doesn't recognizes the ethernet network adapter at all.
