This bug has been fixed with kernel 3.8.0-22.33 - mac-mini now recognizes this chip with the stock kernel from ubuntu without recompile:

If you can plug the Lenovo in to a wired network, you can download and install the package providing the driver for your network card with
sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-cw-3.4-$(uname -r)
If you can't connect the Lenovo to a wired network, you can download the package from http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/admin/. You need to choose the ...

There is no driver loaded for your wired ethernet adapter, however you can load it by executing:
modprobe alx
If it's working, tell the system to load this driver on every boot:
echo alx >> /etc/modules
The wireless adapter seems to have the appropriate driver loaded.

Look into /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf and change the line managed=false to managed=true then restart network-manager:
sudo service network-manager restart

You must use a different IP address for your second PC:
ifconfig eth0 169.254.7.44broadcast 169.254.255.255 netmask 255.255.0.0

I'm experiencing the same issue. Using Paul's supplied link to the bug I've used the workaround that is mentioned there - simply type this into the command line:
echo on | sudo tee /sys/class/net/eth0/device/power/control

It sounds like you want to setup dhcp using the /etc/network/interfaces file instead of network manager.
Your /etc/network/interfaces file needs to look like this:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
If eth0 is the interface you want to connect on. I am assuming whatever router you have connected to is setup as a DHCP server.

I was having this issue as well as an hdmi audio issue, but upgrading my kernel to version 3.9 fixed both of them.

I don't know if you still need it but I had the same problem with kernel 3.2.30. I recompiled the asix drivers 4.6.0 and loaded the modules asix, usbnet and cdc_ether and it works perfectly.

I would firstly try changing the cable to the slow computer it could be a dry joint.
Next I'd check that all connections are pushed home fully in the server and at the PC ends. It may do nothing, but it is better than finding out after doing something that may take a lot longer!

The correct method of installing the driver is the following:
tar xvjf r8168-8.035.00.tar.bz2
cd r8168-8.035.00
sudo ./autorun.sh
This script compiles the module r8168 and installs it to the right place.
To check whether it' loaded, run:
lsmod | grep r81
Also, ifconfig should list a new ethX network interface.

There is actually a bug report about this on launchpad. You can find it at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1169244.

Just by what you've provided, it does sound like the physical port on the side of the laptop may be having issues... is it possible for you to verify that it works in another OS, or in another state? i.e.: Are you dual booting?
If you see similar behavior in another OS, that's likely your port...
Also, a lot of Ethernet ports these days (but not all) ...

After running into another post with the same issue and some Google searching, the AR8161 cards seem to have driver support issues under most flavors of UNIX which result in the card showing up in ifconfig but not properly functioning. Answers in this post and this post detail how to install the kernel support needed for the Atheros card.

OK - after rebuilding the kernel as per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel>https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel and prior build run, adapting the tg3.c file as per previous message, the Network card is detected and running fine now.

This hardware is not yet supported by default.
Look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2008332
there is a patched version of the alx driver working with this ethernet

There's a current bug report on LaunchPad and the latest news is that the fix is due with the 3.8.13 kernel updates.
I'm using 13.04 on a Dell Latitude e6430u with the same problem (Intel NIC).

In ubuntu server, the network card will only be detected once at the first boot up.
You need to delete something
$rm -rf /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

Well, I almost forgot that I asked here this question.
I have already figured out why. There is nothing to do with software, drivers, et cetra. This is indeed a hardware issue. The motherboard of my laptop will automatically turn off the wired NIC when unplugged. There is a switch in the CMOS setting named "Power save on LAN". Turning if off solves this ...

Wired or wireless works on the same way in NetworkManager daemon.
To avoid using it I had set up my own static eth connection for networking service in
/etc/network/interfaces<br/>
iface eth0 inet static<br/>
address 192.168.1.2<br/>
netmask 255.255.255.0<br/>
gateway 192.168.1.1<br/>
Then remove eth dhcp from the ...

I have the same network card on my machine, and was also left without a working internet connection. I was able to get it up and running by downloading the source code for the driver (from its homepage at the Linux Foundation) and compiling it:
wget https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/backports/2013/03/04/compat-drivers-2013-03-04-u.tar.bz2

Device names are auto-assigned for each different piece of hardware. See the "HWaddr" entries? Each of those is a different MAC address. The system stores and remembers each and every hardware you have, so that each of them gets a different label and can be identified as different devices.
I don't believe you can set it up so that everything can be ...

I think, there is MAC filtering on router, switch, dhcp server. Also you may check there is static assign list MAC->IP or allow/deny list.
