On my InternetServiceProvider's router I have a PC and laptop connected, both of which have Ubuntu 20.04.
Yesterday suddenly the ethernet connection of both PC and laptop stopped to work, and discovered, together with the ISP that the ISP's router was not working properly anymore.
Today the technician of the ISP came and substituted the router, and now the ethernet connection works in the laptop, while it doesn't still work in the PC (the WIFI connection works fine for both, PC and laptop).

As you can see, the system doesn't recognize any wired connection settings:

Why after rebooting enp3s0 is not anymore detected by ifconfig ? :

Update 1)
I realized with my great surprise, I didn't do anything..., that in /etc/netplan/01-network-manage-all.yaml the enp3s0 address was not present.
After adding it:
network:
version: 2
renderer: NetworkManager
ethernets:
enp3s0:
dhcp4: no
addresses: [192.168.1.7/24]
gateway4: 192.168.1.1
nameservers:
addresses: [8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4]
applying the modification, and rebooting the system, I can now see: Network Unmanaged:
But, clicking on Connect doesn't make the Ethernet Connection work and still the Wired Settings do not show up:
What else should I check? How to solve the problem?
