I am having a problem using wired connection for Ubuntu 13.10. The problem started suddenly. However I was able to solve it using the answer given in the following post:

Ubuntu 12.04 Dell 6400 no network

It worked perfectly. But now again I am unable to connect to the internet. I tried using the same solution but it was of no use. I have reinstalled the driver for Realtek Ethernet Controller (r8168 ==the latest version) using the answer given in this post:

Wifi and Ethernet connectivity problems after upgrading to 12.04

But these solutions are not solving my problem.

  • Please tell us what exact symptoms you are getting. Any error messages? You talk about wired connections but have tagged this as wireless, are you using wired or not? Finally, please [edit] your question and add the output of sudo ifconfig and lsmod | grep r8101. – terdon Mar 13 '14 at 18:16
  • You are connected to the internet using your wireless. What makes you think you're not? What are the symptoms you're seeing? Are you actually attempting to connect with a wire? – terdon Mar 13 '14 at 18:26
  • i am unable to connect to the internet using wired LAN cable – Tanvir Mar 13 '14 at 18:29
  • OK, please unplug the cable, then plug it back in and run dmesg | tail and post the output here. Also, try service networking restart and see if that makes a difference. Finally, have you added r8168 to /etc/modules? If you haven't do so, then restart and see if it works. – terdon Mar 13 '14 at 18:33
  • /etc/modules have r8168..restarted the network but still no connection possible. – Tanvir Mar 13 '14 at 18:55
