Summary0002171: Intel I217-LM Ethernet controller (e1000e) driver wont' send packets
Description

On a Dell Latitude E6540, Ethernet is non-functional. eth0 exists, the e1000e kernel module is loaded for it, it can receive packets as evidenced by tcpdump, but cannot adequately transmit packets. dhclient times out with no error messages and no IP address received. Statically assigning an IP address doesn't allow for receipt of packets. Link speed negotiation works properly.

No error messages are generated other than

dell_wmi: Received unknown WMI event (0x0)

that seems to pop up at insertion of kernel module.

Kernel is 3.18.0-kali3-amd64 0000001 Debian 3.18.1-kali2 x86_64 (2015-03-02)

Steps To Reproduce
  1. Install Kali 1.1.0 or run live Kali.
  2. Observe malfunctioning eth0 as per above.
  3. Install Windows - Ethernet working normally.
  4. Run live Ubuntu 15.04 beta daily snapshot - observe Ethernet working correctly.
Additional Information

Hardware per lspci is Intel I217-LM.

Due to the age of the OS (Kali Moto [v1], Kali Safi [v2], Kali Rolling 2016.x), these legacy versions are no longer supported.
