Good news! I didn't have tried again "folder 2" files, went straight to 4.19rc1, and it worked fine! Nic is detected and operational as it should be.

After installed them to a pc, to my surprise, one of them was correctly identified and the other was incorrectly identified as "NCube Device 8168 (rev 06)". After DuckDuckGoing for a while I found this kernel bud report for FreeBSD: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/not-recognized-pci-e -network-card.57734/ IMHO is the same issue but I'm using Ubuntu 16.04.5 server i686. I wanted to report this so it can be fixed, please let me know wich logs/data should I provide. When ran lspci -nv this is shown for the correct nic: 03:00.0 0200: 10ec:8168 (rev 06) Subsystem: 7470:3468 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 27 I/O ports at e800 [size=256] Memory at febff000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] Memory at fdffc000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: <access denied> Kernel driver in use: r8169 Kernel modules: r8169 And this for the incorrect one: 01:00.0 0200: 10ff:8168 (rev 06) Subsystem: 7470:3468 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 11 I/O ports at c800 [size=256] Memory at fe9ff000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] Memory at fdefc000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: <access denied> 1) lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS Release: 16.04 2) In regard to the package I think this is related to the kernel itself? 3) Both cards should be identified as "Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 06)" and the r8169 driver should be used. 4) The network card was erroneously detected as a different one and the driver was not loaded by the kernel.
