Help! My Ethernet Isn’t Working on Ubuntu

Asked By TechyTurtle99 On

I've been having trouble with my Ethernet connection and I've checked that my router and cable are fine. I'm using an Asus a320m-f motherboard. When I try to restart the network-manager service using "sudo service network-manager restart", I get an error saying "failed to restart network-manager.service: Unit network manager.service not found." I even attempted to set up a PCIe Wi-Fi card I had from before, but it showed up as "UNCLAIMED" in the output from lshw and I couldn't find the Wi-Fi option in my settings. Can anyone help me troubleshoot this on Ubuntu?

Make sure the Network Manager service is enabled before you try to restart it. You can run "sudo systemctl enable NetworkManager" and then try restarting it again.

First off, it's important to confirm which distribution you're using. If the error says the network manager service isn't found, it might not be installed, or there could have been a typo. Not all Linux distributions use Network Manager, so that could be your issue. Also, I'm curious why you think restarting the Network Manager would fix your Ethernet. Can you clarify that?
