ASUS H97M-PLUS Lan missing

Hi I'm Alexandre Rua from Portugal
I use crunchbang on several machines now and very happy so far.

This week I bought a new machine with an ASUS H97M-PLUS motherboard, and after instalation I'm not able to get the LAN onboard adapter to work, it appears missing.
I searched for and it seem it is a - Intel I218V, 1 x Gigabit LAN Controller(s), is there any driver or workaround to this.

Or better to buy a other NIC?

Thanks
Alexandre Rua

Re: ASUS H97M-PLUS Lan missing

Run this command:

sudo update-pciids

Then post the output of:

lspci -knn|grep -iA2 net

You probably just need a newer kernel from the wheezy-backports repository.

EDIT: Just noticed that you've posted this under Testing/Unstable so that's probably not the case...

Anyway, run the update command and post the terminal output from the `lspci` command I gave.

I have an ASUS Zenbook UX303LA and the ethernet piggybacks (for lack of a better word) off of the wireless chip (I think).  Anyway, I use a USB ethernet dongle (there is no ethernet port) and couldn't get a connection until I used a newer kernel; confirmed to work on kernel 3.16.0-4.

@alexandrerua:  What network manager are you using?  I initially was using wicd/ceni (antiX v13.2) and the ethernet reference was incorrect.
