I'd query the OS to find out what driver is used, you may have to blacklist something.
I think this will report everything if you read it closely

Code:

sudo lshw -class network

How did you get from "command not found" to it giving you the information?

I'm still at "command not found".

try

Code:

sudo apt-get install lshw

John
I see

Code:

driver=r8169

I know this won't help much but:

Realtek network chips are like pot noodles, there are 50 brands using the same base recipe, new and "improved" flavours every month, and they all still taste vaguely like cardboard... And yet people just keep eating them, because they're dirt cheap.

Ref: forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=149173

I think you should try:

Code:

sudo apt install r8125-dkms

From Synaptic Package Manager, seems to be source code.

dkms source for the r8125 network driver

r8125 is the Linux 2.5G Ethernet device driver released by RealTek for their
network controller.

This package provides the dkms source code for the r8125 kernel modules.
Kernel source or headers are required to compile these modules.

Or did I read that wrong and that package has the device driver and source code?

It has the source code, and from that it compiles and installs the driver, hence the need for headers.

Tommy's got it. It rebuilds that part of the kernel.
So first:

Code:

sudo apt install linux-headers-$(uname-r)

as we discussed earlier

I really hope you get a win.

For anyone following along there needs to be a space between uname and -r.

Code:

sudo apt install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
