I recently started to dual-boot Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04. However, I can't connect to the internet over my ethernet port. I'm using a Gigabyte GA-H97M-D3H Micro ATX LGA1150 mobo, which has a Realtk PCIe GBE Ethernet controller. I've tried to install the drivers, but it gives me an error (I don't remember what it is exactly. On Windows ATM). Any ideas?

Doesnt your mainboard have a regular lan port? – Motte001 May 07 '16 at 00:26

Check (vi/nano) /etc/network/interfaces I willing to bet you only have lo interface.
If so run dmesg | grep "eth0" it may tell you that eth0 has been changed to new name, then you will have to add the new interface name to /etc/network/interfaces.
If above does not work try ifconfig to see if there is a new name.
hope this helps!!
