This is still not fixed. I'm now using Ubuntu 16.04 (kernel 4.4.0-21).

MTU hack is not a viable workaround because many applications will fail,
among those ssh, sftp and uploading files in web browsers.

Using WiFi is only a viable workaround when it's available and stable
which is not always the case.

  The ethernet adapter stopped working on upgrade from linux
  3.19.0-16-generic to 3.19.0-18-generic. Upon inital system start, I
  can successfully ping a remote server, but once I try any TCP
  connection, even ping fails.

  If I fallback to 3.19.0-16, everything is working OK.

  WORKAROUND: In Network manager, set the ethernet connection's MTU
  value from automatic to 8192.
