Found a solution at
http://askubuntu.com/questions/346685/wired-connection-problem-ubuntu-13-04-realtek-rtl8111-8168-ethernet-controller
.

echo on | sudo tee /sys/class/net/eth0/device/power/control

Started working immediately!

I will mark this solved (and hope it really is)

Thank for getting back to me.
