I have this exact same problem on a Lenovo Thinkpad T410. I am also current on BIOS. How can I reflash the NIC or reset the NVM? I have tried all the different versions of driver software to no avail. I have tried booting into a Linux environment(several actually) and none of those can make the NIC work at all. is this a replaceable item or integral to the motherboard?
thanks for any clues you can offer
