Ethernet isn’t an option for network

Hi, I just got a new drive and realize that my Ethernet no longer works. I tried many of the methods for others experiencing similar issue but it didn’t resolve. The Ethernet controller is listed under other devices and cannot be updated. Ethernet is not an option in network and connections and when I run troubleshoot, it tells me the system does not detect a properly installed network adapter/I need to install the driver. Please send help, thank you.
