Hi, i started using mint a few months ago as my main OS but recently I start to experience some issues with my ethernet interface.
When I start my pc and connect my ethernet cable there's no problem but after a minute or two I no longer have access to internet.
I try to reinstall, downgrade and force my drivers but still have no internet access, also I tried to set a manual IP and doesn't work either.
Can someone tell me if I doing something wrong?

Did someone mess with the router settings?
was there a recent unsafe power cut to the house/router?
from the sounds of it, it seems it's dropping the DHCP lease after a minute
make a new automatic connection in the linux Network settings
then from there attempt to log into your router's setup page via browser
also attempt to login to the setup page once you discover WAN access is lost.
