Hello,
While it is working under W11 I can’t find a way to connect to internet using my ethernet port. Although I can connect through usb tethering using my phone which is on wifi so it uses the same router/network.
Note: Fast boot is disabled on W11.
It may help us if you post the textual output from
inxi -SNxxx
Just in case your network card is something exotic - although I doubt it.
From your profile - your system appear aged and there is no apparent reason why it shouldn’t work.
Ok, here is the result of inxi -SNxxx:

Maybe better would be
inxi -Snazy
That way we can see its state, etc.

I see your profile info - which my comment is based upon - is not up-to-date
But as your mention Win11 dual-boot and you are using linux 6.6 I assume you have upgraded your hardware.
I agree with @cscs that we may need some extra info on your system.
A couple of years back the r8168 driver could be a hit or miss.
Usually the kernel driver works as expected but when it doesn’t it may be necessary to use the separate package in the repo.
I suspect it has something to with iterations over the hardware.
Please check if the package linux66-r8168 is installed on your system.
mhwd -li
If it is installed remove it and vice versa.

I have not upgraded my hardware.

It was installed. Removing it changed nothing.
Sorry for late answer…
In case someone is passing by. I am still stuck ^^
Fast Startup is disabled in Windows 11. Fast Startup is a hibernation variant which must be disabled when multibooting.
Fast Boot is a BIOS option which allows to skip certain self-tests during pre-boot (before handoff to a bootloader). This too is generally recommended to disable when using Linux, however, it’s not related to Fast Startup.
The takeaway from this is that next time some helpful parrot tells you to disable fast boot in Windows, you will actually know the difference and be able to correct them.
That is all. Cheers.
