That's shocking. Intel NIC's driver source is great in terms of openness. What I'd wonder is what's your linux-firmware package version. That's a big lump of firmware collection, and in my mind it is more important than the kernel. Did that change recently (a.k.a. newer version)? If you have this problem I'm sure others have it too. Try a 16.10 fresh live CD, and if that's working well I'd consider a dist upgrade to Yakkety Yak.
