Alright so I've had this computer for it seems like forever. The motherboard is a first generation republic of gamers board and neither of the ethernet ports work, nor will it register that an ethernet cable is plugged into a PCI network card.

Installed drivers for the network card and still nothing. I have never had a computer tell me an ethernet cable isn't plugged in when it is. I installed a wifi network card and the computer doesn't even register that it's plugged in, yet the card's indicator lights are lit up.

Any ideas?
 
I m not sure it's the same case, but i 've had a mobo giving every few seconds a popup in systray saying "network cable not plugged". Turned out, the cable was faulty. I replaced it and worked again.
 
I had a pc at work lose it's network ports once, happened during a storm, guess lightning killed it. I couldn't get it to work with a pci network card either. But strangely enough a wireless usb network adapter did the trick. It was a cheap board and wasn't worth the time to troubleshoot any farther.
I ended up replacing the board in the end.

Have you switched cables, just to see if that works? Maybe even check your router/try a different port on it. I know it's probably neither of those. But just something to check anyways.
