I have also the same issue, but I have a Realtek card. Running ubuntu 15.10 and after suspend or restart it is saying network cable unplugged very often. And network seems to go down everytime you suspend.
Unpluggin and plugging it sometimes help, but you may need to do it multiple times. Here is my network card information: *-network description: Ethernet interface product: RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller vendor: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. physical id: 0 bus info: pci@0000:06:00.0 logical name: enp6s0 version: 02 serial: e0:cb:4e:70:1c:91 size: 100Mbit/s capacity: 1Gbit/s width: 64 bits clock: 33MHz capabilities: bus_master cap_list rom ethernet physical tp mii 10bt 10bt-fd 100bt 100bt-fd 1000bt 1000bt-fd autonegotiation configuration: autonegotiation=on broadcast=yes driver=r8169 driverversion=2.3LK-NAPI duplex=full ip=192.168.1.70 latency=0 link=yes multicast=yes port=MII speed=100Mbit/s resources: irq:28 ioport:e800(size=256) memory:fbeff000-fbefffff memory:f8ef0000-f8efffff memory:fbec0000-fbedffff And I am having this kind of messages in dmesg: r8169 0000:06:00.0 enp6s0: link down [ 812.236808] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): enp6s0: link is not ready [ 1065.789186] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): enp6s0: link is not ready [ 1065.789313] Failed to recover vector for irq 28 [ 1065.799353] r8169 0000:06:00.0 enp6s0: link down [ 1065.799395] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): enp6s0: link is not ready [ 1174.573575] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): enp6s0: link is not ready [ 1174.573708] Failed to recover vector for irq 28 [ 1174.584636] r8169 0000:06:00.0 enp6s0: link down [ 1174.584676] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): enp6s0: link is not ready [ 1196.290919] r8169 0000:06:00.0 enp6s0: link up [ 1196.290931] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): enp6s0: link becomes ready [ 1288.122309] r8169 0000:06:00.0 enp6s0: link down [ 1292.840986] r8169 0000:06:00.0 enp6s0: link up [ 1293.086834] r8169 0000:06:00.0 enp6s0: link down [ 1295.367146] r8169 0000:06:00.0 enp6s0: link up [ 1349.102757] r8169 0000:06:00.0 enp6s0: link down [ 1354.569764] r8169 0000:06:00.0 enp6s0: link up [ 1496.447962] r8169 0000:06:00.0 enp6s0: link down [ 1517.072913] r8169 0000:06:00.0 enp6s0: link up [ 2528.507279] lpc_ich 0000:00:1f.0: BAR 13: [io size 0x0080] has bogus alignment [ 2528.507288] pci 0000:00:1e.0: PCI bridge to [bus 08] [ 2557.675540] lpc_ich 0000:00:1f.0: BAR 13: [io size 0x0080] has bogus alignment [ 2557.675551] pci 0000:00:1e.0: PCI bridge to [bus 08] [ 3003.140722] r8169 0000:06:00.0 enp6s0: link down [ 3021.111219] r8169 0000:06:00.0 enp6s0: link up (Note I removed my network card multiple times, and I was trying to restart the network sometimes with sudo /etc/init.d/network-manager restart) I read somewhere this may be a buggy Realtek driver. Or some other issue, but seems to be very similar symptomps than the OP had. Any advice?

However, after suspend, it is gone from network manager ("No network devices available"), from ifconfig, and from lshw -class Network. It works fine prior to suspend. I have tried removing the kernel module iwlwifi,before suspend and modprobe-ing it after, but that results in no change. I also have disabled wifi via the keyboard key, then suspended, then resumed, but still no luck. No change after installing intel-microcode either. Wifi does come back after resume in Windows. As additional data points: This also happens with WiFi cards Killer 1535, and Intel 8260. Also, the exact same thing happens to my wired ethernet connection as well (it disappears from lshw -class Network) after suspend. --- ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: abarry 1585 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: Unity DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-03-10 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 15.10 "Wily Werewolf" - Release amd64 (20151021) Lsusb: Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 004: ID 1bcf:2b8c Sunplus Innovation Technology Inc.
