Hi Thanks for the instructions, I have checked the Ethernet interface on-board:
$lspci | grep -i ethernet 00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection I217-V (rev 04) And, I only get a folder called "hp" after ls -l /lib/firmware So, in this case, what package should I download then, please?
