Re: Ethernet connection weirdly not working mornings
Appologies for taking so long to follow up on this thread,
life got busy.

The e1000e module is loaded on booting:
~ % lsmod | grep e1000
e1000e 113198 0
This does appear to be a module-related problem. When I find the
ethernet won't come up, I do:
# rmmod -f e1000e
# modprobe e1000e
And the problem goes away. It's also possible that going through many
cyles of suspend-to-ram could exacerbate the problem, but I'm not
entirely sure.
Thanks for the help,
John
