TP-link TG-3468

Hi!

My TP-link TG-3468 NIC doen't work properly: it doesn't get the network setting by dhcp and I cannot ping it (or through it) when I set a static ip address.
I tried the r8169 kernel module from base and r8168 from AUR, same result. I switched from Debian because of this problem. I don't know whether my card has some problem or just I do something wrong.

lspci:

02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 06)
        Subsystem: Device 7470:3468
        Physical Slot: 16
        Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 65

        Kernel driver in use: r8168
        Kernel modules: r8169, r8168

ip addr show dev:

2: ens16: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP group default qlen 1000
    link/ether [mymac] ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet6 [an IPv6 address similar to its mac address]/64 scope link 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

Does anyone use this card with Arch?

Thanks for help!
