I have recently purchased a high-spec clean machine, and installed 20.04 on it. I find that the Intel Killer E3100 card does not seem to be enable-able. The card itself has a wireless interface as well as Ethernet. It's supposed to be very fast. I get very slow wireless speed (presumably from a wifi adapter elsewhere in my system, as you'll see below) and no Wired Ethernet connection at all via the plug.
I checked with Intel, who promise me (and advertise the fact) that the card is compatible with Linux as well as windows, but Intel only supply the windows driver. They say support is built into the Linux kernel, and it is Linux's job to support. Sure enough their documentation shows a file I find in my own kernel, so I know it's there.
I have looked at the advice of one user, who mentioned the kernel being at least v8. Mine looks like v11:
$ sudo uname -r
5.11.0-34-generic
I have followed the advices I have seen here around the presence or content or location of the file named 10-globally-managed-devices.conf and restarting the networking service. Sadly no success.
My lshw shows up like this, and you can see my device reporting "DISABLED":
$ sudo lshw -C network
*-network DISABLED

Am I just not turning it on properly? How should I do that?
Thanks in Advance ;-)
