Title:
  In 14.04.04, r8169.ko cannot recover wired Ethernet connection after
  resume from suspend

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Whenever my laptop suspends (desirable) and then resumes, the r8169
  module cannot reconnect the wired Ethernet line.  This is consistent.
  I can see network_manager trying over and over to get a reconnection.

  Functional work-around:
     # After resume:
     sudo rmmod r8169
     sudo insmod /lib/modules/`uname --kernel-release`/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/realtek/r8169.ko

  Xubuntu Trusty (14.04.04 up-to-date)
     - HP Pavilion dv3-1075us Laptop
     - Product page: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01632154
     - CPU: AMD Turion X2 RM-72 Dual-Core Mobile Processor @ 2.10 GHz
     - RAM: 8GB (max: 8GB)
     - Video: ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics 
     - Kernel: 3.13.0-79-generic (on 2016-03-13)
     - Wired Ethernet: RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller

  Note that the r8169 module was chosen by Ubuntu during installation,
  not by me.
