I planned to connect the laptop at my lab (instead at home) to check.
But I've just solved the problem by blowing on the Ethernet port.
There could have been some dust due to the travel.
Now I've updated a script run by cron to check that the Ethernet speed
is always 1000 Mbps when connected to the FTTH box in case the problem
occurs again in the future and I don't notice it.
