Steven Goris, as per
http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/N56VZ/#support an update is
available for your BIOS (217). If you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate , does it change anything?

If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful.

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Atheros AR9161 Ethernet Gigabit adapter works till suspend

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  My Ethernet adapter in my N56-VZ only works till the computer suspends, after that it's not recognized anymore.
  It just disapeared from ifconfig and I can't use it anymore. There is no eth0 anymore.
  I am now on Ubuntu 13.04 linux version 3.8.0-19-generic #29-Ubuntu SMP.
  I tried the 3.9.0-030900 mainline kernel, but this doesn't fix the problem. it seems it doesn't recognizes the ethernet network adapter at all.
