Fresh Install , No Wired connection

[Moonfrog]

Hello , just did a fresh install . Almost everything worked perfect . The problem I encountered is I have no internet wired connection .
WiFi is working great , but wired connection can’t connect .
I tried to connect while live , but still same . WIFI works great but no wired connection .
I was going to re-install , but don’t think it would make a difference as it happens while being live also .
I’m running KDE latest , how can I resolve this problem ?

After reading the link , I tried these 2 commands .
Two things to try:

install r8168 (sudo pacman -S r8168) and reboot, does ethernet work?
uninstall r8168 (sudo pacman -R r8168) and reboot, does ethernet work?

Still not connecting . Here is the ( ```
inxi -Fxxxz

And the Network section results :

After the wired connection deactivates , it give me this info :
IP configuration was unavailable
Not sure if it’s important or not .

I installed driver ```
r8168

here is the info after reboot :

Just to check off some boxes… have you tried that same internet cable with another device to ensure it’s working? Have you tried another socket on the router?

[Moonfrog]

Will double check now .

Personally I use the aur/r8168-dkms package. In /etc/modules-load.d/r8168.conf:

r8168

Works. Just as a data point.

Well , I just went through the basics . Although nothing changed but a fresh install , Garbage Modem was at fault . It is now working ! Changing modem fixed it . Reset faulty modem a couple times and that one now working .
I think I was confused because WIFI was working and didn’t suspect modem itself . I should have known better as Endeavour has always been perfect … SORRY , My bad !
Yes I’m embarrassed , and feel a little dumb at the moment .
Besides it working again , it was good to refresh my memory on the basics .
Thank You ! for the help …

Happens to the best of us

so many pieces of hardware and software have to all be just perfect, sometimes it can boggle the mind (well, mine, at least)

[Moonfrog]

Endeavour has always been perfect for me . Just hardware problem . I used to be a distro hopper looking for the Holy Grail . I found it in EndeavourOS . Now I’m cured !
