Network card does not initialize after update

The version I used was 6.8.12-1, and when I updated to 6.8.12-5, the network card stopped initializing. Since the server is always on, I selected the previous version when initializing and it worked. I thought it might be a bug or incompatibility with the version, which could be fixed in the future.

Now I've updated to version 6.8.12-10 and the card still won't initialize. Going back to 6.8.12-1 works without problems.

Does anyone have any tips on how to solve this? Is it a version problem or incompatibility with the network card and server?

Thank you very much in advance.
 
Is it possible that the kernel upgrade renamed the network interface? This is known to happen when upgrading kernel versions. you can check by running ip a and comparing the names of the network interfaces returned of the command with the name of the network interfaces in /etc/network/interfaces .
 
I can't stop the server right now to do tests. But tonight I'll run the command on both versions to compare how it works on one and the other.
Thanks for your feedback.
 
That's right, my friend, the update ended up changing the name of the network interface, from 'eno1' to 'enp8s0'
Thank you very much for your help, regards
