tlp0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
	address: 00:00:f8:75:48:2b
	media: Ethernet autoselect instance 1 (none)
	status: active
	inet 192.168.177.162 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.177.255
	inet6 fe80::200:f8ff:fe75:482b%tlp0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1

Hm. I also got (none) here, but i'm currently writing these lines via exactly
this link. Maybe there is something broken in PHY programming. Did you try if
you have link or did you just believe what ifconfig tells you?

It's definitely something to have a look into, but maybe it "just works" for
you also.
