You have been subscribed to a public bug: Latest network-manager, systemd, kernel-updates killed ethernet networking. It is impossible to have an address assigned.
I can make sure hardware is ok, by booting into SystemRescueCD. Ethernet immediately is up and working. As soon as I boot into Ubuntu 18.10 networking with ethernet stops working at all. Even trying to set it up manually using "ip" or "ifconfig" does not help. Modules seem loaded, but not functional. Unsure if it is kernel, systemd, or network-manager related. >From network-manager I can activate WLAN. Thus in my humble opinion the driver or firmware was killed by installing the latest updates.
