Build: Intel Core Ultra 7 265K 3.9 GHz 20-core chipset Noctua NH-L9x65 33.84 CFM CPU cooler Asus Z890 AYW GAMING WIFI W ATX LGA1851 motherboard G.Skill Ripjaws M5 Neo RGB 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL36 RAM PNY OC GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16 GB graphics card Montech KING 95 PRO ATX mid-tower case MSI MAG A850GL PCIE5 850W 80+ Gold certified fully modular ATX power supply running Ubuntu 24.04. Attempted to locate drivers online, only Windows drivers available; Ubuntu couldn't process them when I connected via USB. Uncertain about setting up Wi-Fi or Ethernet. Tried installing net-tools. Sorry for posting multiple times in a short span—this should be the final major issue. Advised by the technician to use this motherboard, I decided to proceed.

when the ethernet cable is connected, the lights activate with a steady orange glow and a brief green flash. running ifconfig -a reveals no active ethernet interface, just the localhost loopback address.
