[SOLVED] eht0link down, link up, link down again. Probably after updat

Hi about a week ago I did an update and since then I get

[10192.539255] r8169 0000:04:00.0 eth0: link down
[10194.160251] r8169 0000:04:00.0 eth0: link up
[10194.936265] r8169 0000:04:00.0 eth0: link down
<SNIP>
[10297.953784] r8169 0000:04:00.0 eth0: link down
[10299.609177] r8169 0000:04:00.0 eth0: link up
[10300.379052] r8169 0000:04:00.0 eth0: link down
[10302.059019] r8169 0000:04:00.0 eth0: link up

Whenever I plug in the wire.
I don't think I was messing with my system during the previous day. Anyone encountered this?
Any more info I can provide?

Thanks

Hi,

How did you configure your wired connection?

Maybe this thread is of help.

Hi, thanks, I am using NetworkManager with nm-applet. Don't have net-auto-wired.service and net-auto-wireless.service at all.

nm-applet doesn't even have time to try to connect to anywhere because the link gets shut down every second or so.

See if it happens with kernel-lts.

Connect the cable to some other device, to see if it isn't fault of the cable or other networking devices.

Thank you very much! I feel sooo dumb right now... Last week cisco switches crashed here and when they fixed it, it worked fine for a few days, when I tried the other socket it does not get disconnected.

Problem solved.
