Hi,
I've also a Asus N550JK with a 
05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 0c)

With standard installation of Ubuntu 14.04.1 the ethernet card is NOT working.
Nevertheless I did try  3.16.7-031607-generic and 3.18.0-031800rc7-generic and the network card IS WORKING.

Then some standard update to Ubuntu 14.04 stock kernel made it work too.

To summarize, now the card IS WORKING with stock ubuntu 14.04 kernels at least:
 3.13.0-40-generic
 3.13.0-43-generic

I think we may close this bug

Title:
  gigabit ethernet card  on ASUS N550JK not working at all

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  
  The card detects link status, negotiates speed/duplex but no packets are sent or received. --- I verified the non-delivery using tcpdump on both machines connected to a local switch, I was watching for ARP (because it's an easy broadcast, ping a nonexistent IP) on the local end and the DHCP requests on the other. I only see packets that should be sent (DHCP requests, SMB queries, IPv6 announcements, etc), none of which reach the switch.

  The card is PCI ID 10ec:8168, rev 0c.

  I see "NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0 (r8169): transmit queue 0 timed out in
  dmesg" , once, the full message below.

  rmmod/modprobe has no effect.

  Despite several reboots the card never worked.

  Everything else should be reported by "ubuntu-bug linux", but feel
  free to let me know if you need any information.
