Sorry, but please disregard comment #15. It was not my NIC driver. Instead it was an issue with NetworkManager not populating my /etc/resolv.conf file. This is a problem that has been reported elsewhere.

This morning I applied updates via the flashing Software Center. Since some of them were Unity updates, I rebooted. Then I lost my onboard Realtek ethernet! I have an ASUS M4A89GTD Pro motherboard, with Realtek RTL8111/8168B ethernet controller. Googling the issue, I found this bug thread. It was working fine for me until today. I had updated last weekend from 11.04 to 11.10. No previous problems with this driver. Help!!

Bug 839393 is likely the same issue being experienced here. That being said, for bug 839393 I provided a newer version of the r8169 driver from the latest upstream v3.1 kernel. For anyone interested in testing, I've provided it via the linux-backports-modules-3.0.0 package which I've uploaded to my PPA: https://launchpad.net/~leannogasawara/+archive/ppa/ After adding the PPA to your system, you will want to install linux- backports-modules-net-3.0.0-12-generic which will provide the newer r8169 driver. Please note that you need to be using the linux- image-3.0.0-12-generic kernel when you install and you will also need to reboot after installing. So, for anyone who is still experiencing issues, please let me know your results after having tested the newer driver. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/853671 Title: [Oneiric regression] [RTL8111/8168B] Occasional network problems To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/853671/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs- upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Seems to work better indeed. I could not test it with the same setup, but was able to transfer a few gigabytes of files over the network (but with fixed IP. could not test DHCP).

I can confirm this bug with the following kernel version: linux-image-3.0.0-12-generic However, I'm pretty sure that this is not only kernel related (firmware?).
