old nic failing, so I purchased a new one.
Crest-Port-Ethernet-PCIe-SI-PEX24038 from amazon. Windows shows it as a Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller. Works ok there.
Ubuntu does not see it at all. ifconfig -a shows only lo.
After installing the card, wlan0 also disappeared. It is an Alfa AWUS036NH. Windows still sees and can use this as well.
What do I need to do to bring both of these back to life in ubuntu? Plan to use them to learn white hat hacking in hopes of landing a job. Going to be stuck at home for a few months due to chemo and radiation treatments and figured I should put the time to use learning something.
I will re-install if needed. I have all data on a ntfs partition and /home has its own partition as well.
