ethernet cable attached but no internet on Acer Aspire 5000

Hi [member=7067]JanetBiggar[/member]

First- In the BIOS section disable network boot (eliminates DMI controlling addressing abitrarily) In the BIOS Main section look for PCI devices. Under BIOS INFO section look to see if your ethernet card is listed. If your ethernet card is listed in the BIOS but does not show up in your LL system info the issue is likely a systemd connection naming problem. You can look for your card in LL >System>System> Info from the LL main menu, or run lspci. Support for 10 by 100 ethernet is pretty universal in Linux. If your card is listed in the BIOS and not in LL, or is listed in LL but not working, chances are the connection address is borked by systemd. That can be fixed.
