Hello there,

My ethernet on my dual boot (Sierra, win10) desktop has suddenly stopped working. I have a response in Sierra that there is no network and in win10 that it is an unidentified network and that there is no IP address. However in win10 wifi works but I have no wifi for Sierra so cannot say if that would also work.

I have tried a reboot on both OSes. As well as trying several methods found online including going into command line and resetting TCP/IP. Also, reset the router and my tp link powerline adapters. I have also tried the data cable from the second powerline adapter to a laptop and it is running interent through the adapters just fine. So it has to be something internal.

I am worried it is hardware oriented as it is happening for both OSes which are on seperate hard drives.

Any ideas will be appreciated, I have run out of possible answers online.
