Hi ! My Ethernet connetion has been lost for a few days now. I don’t know what’s causing it. Here’s my inxi output :

Can you help me solve this ? By the way, I’m new at linux.
5.13 Kernel is EOL. Can you try with one of the LTS Kernels, 5.4 or 5.10? I know it is improbable, but can you swap Ethernet cable (rule out bad cable) and/or plug directly into the modem to rule out router configuration?
Hi ! I’ve tried two ethernet cables, and the modem of where I live is reliable : same installation for my neighbours who have no problem. I think it comes from my system. How to update my LTS Kernel to 5.4 or 5.10 ?
Hi ! I have intalled and run 5.10 Kernel. Besides, what does EOL mean for 5.13 Kernel ? Ethernet still doesn’t work. Here is my new inxi output :

What could I do now ? On my side, I will buy a new cable and verify on another computer if ethernet works. What about having another distro next to Manjaro in case of problem ? I don’t want to reinstall windows…
Maybe, try to install the R8168 driver ( r8168-dkms 8.049.02-1) and blacklist the R8169 driver. Make sure that you have the appropriate kernel headers installed.
EOL = End of Life
You can see the lifespans of kernels on kernel.org .
You can also try the newest kernel we have to see if it has drivers built in that fixes the issue.
Also maybe something here can help:

Hello. It appears it comes from the router of my accomadation provider (not much details). Thank you anyway, I have learned a bit.
