Bug description:
  Ethernet doesn't work on ASUS NUC 14 Essential with Intel Core 3 N355
  CPU and Ubuntu 24.04.2 without patching it.

  I got mine to work by following the instructions provided by Jeremy31
  on my Topic

  https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/rtl8125-2-5gbe-ethernet-port-not-
  working-in-ubuntu-24-04/55551

  Here is the series of commands I followed, and the NUC's Ethernet has
  been working fine, at 1Gbps at least, ever since (about a week,
  through several shutdown/reboots). I am not good enough at Linux to
  understand what these commands did.

  sudo apt install git
  git clone https://github.com/notpeelz/r8125.git
  cd r8125/src
  make

  Ignore some errors, then
  zstd r8125.ko
  sudo cp r8125.ko.zst /lib/modules/$(uname 
-r)/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/realtek/
  echo "blacklist r8169" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/r8169.conf
  sudo depmod -a

  Reboot

  Jeremy31 also commented, "It really isn’t up to ASUS as it is a
  Realtek ethernet device and support has been added to newer upstream
  kernels to support more of the RTL8125 variants in the r8169 kernel
  module. I am not real familiar with r8169 but I wonder if they could
  just pull all the recent upstream commits and have more devices
  function with r8169 in the Ubuntu kernels"

  System -> About: Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS


  In case this helps: There are many, _many_ similar complaints on many
  forums etc.. I think, for example, this one on a Plugable device is
  related:

  https://support.plugable.com/t/wired-network-does-not-work-on-
  ubuntu-24-04/25555

  I wrote to them and they replied, in part, "As for our ethernet
  adapters that use the Realtek chipsets we currently only use the
  RTL8153B for our Gigabit ethernet adapter, and the RTL8156B for our
  2.5 Gigabit ethernet adapter."

  If I can help further, please call or text my smartphone at
  651.440.4328, or email me.

  IHTH
