The Ethernet port on my Thinkpad workstation thunderbolt 3 dock simply stopped working after upgrading to Windows 11. From reading online its a known issue without any obvious fix. Killed the port so bad that it stopped working in Linux as well.

Well, at least that was until the dock had been unplugged from the power for a couple of weeks. The Ethernet port sprung back to life when I booted my laptop straight into Linux. I don't dare boot into Windows 11 again whilst docked.
