Hi Florian, thanks for your help. I'm writing you with my office mail. The network section of the lspci command is as follows:
05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

I saw another topic about a seemingly identical chip here, http://www.mail-archive.com/netdev@vger.kernel.org/msg20667.html but I didn't understand much... Any help will be greatly appreciated, I bought 2 of these laptops at once, but if I don't get the network to work, I'll be in trouble!
