I am confirming this bug. Many people report the same issue with this hardware, firmware revision, and driver. Since this issue also occurs in Windows, it is highly suspect that the Intel networking firmware is to blame, but I am unable to find any update for the firmware or workarounds in the e1000e firmware. Also note that this device is a 10/100 card, and not gigabit capable, as the driver's name e1000e may seem to suggest.
I am open to any suggestions. Who should be assigned to this bug? Perhaps it is best left to be handled by upstream Linux devs... ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: New => Confirmed -- DHCP and ping failure on e1000e https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/382671 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
