No ethernet on a MSI MPG B550 Gaming Carbon WiFi motherboard

I just got a MSI MPG B550 Gaming Carbon WiFi motherboard. I installed Ubuntu 20.04. When it booted to the OS it will only see wifi and no ethernet connection. Do I need to get drivers in order to get this to work? Seem odd that the wifi worked out of the box, but no ethernet.

Thanks

Solution 1:

Since your motherboard does in fact have an Ethernet port, I think it is a driver issue.

However,on the MSI website there do not seem to be any driver downloads for Linux. The links above may be your best bet, and may provide the best help for your query and issue.

I hope this helps!
