[1969:1083] is what we would expect as a device identifier. So that's
ok.

The kernel driver is loaded; lsmod also indicates the same. That's ok.

Firmware has been mentioned as something which is needed. What does

   /sbin/modinfo atl1c

say? I can see no sign in the output relating to firmware.

So everything seems good to go. Except it doesn't. Let us see what the
output of 'ifconfig -a' is. Also, are you using Network Manager? Give
us a peek at your /etc/network/interfaces file, please.
