Code: Select all

 sudo modprobe -r r8169 && sudo modprobe r8169 && systemctl restart NetworkManager 
If that doesn't help, I'm out of ideas.
Didn't work. Thank you so much for your help through, you are very knowledgeable.

I assume you tried reinserting the cable? Unless someone has another idea, you might need to reinstall Mint.
