Hello,
On my Raspberry Pi 3 Model B Plus Rev 1.3, the ethernet interface is missing.
WLAN works.
When I plug the ethernet cable, the link leds won't come up.
I've scanned the hardware with two tools (see below) but I can't say if te hardware is there or not.
I don't know the problem is hardware or software.
The only lead is "Broadcom BCM43430 WLAN card" (unknown). I don't know if the ethernet adapter is the same chip as the WLAN adapter...
Any help would be appreciated !
Thank you.
