Is this on bare metal or some virtual machine? What kind of troubleshooting have you done?
What does this output?
sudo lshw -class network -short

Hi, I’ve got the same exact issue after doing parrot-upgrade
the output for sudo lshw -class network -short
was:
$sudo lshw -class network -short
H/W path Device Class Description
========================================================
/0/100/4/0 network RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller
/0/100/7/0 network BCM43228 802.11a/b/g/n
Thanks in advance
------ EDIT ------
Got the ethernet back by doing sudo modprobe r8169
though it’s down again after rebooting

More than one person experiencing the same issue after doing a parrot-upgrade may be a software glitch (Parrot is a rolling-release so can be prone to bugs). It would be interesting to see what card Thomas has, if it is related to a specific driver. (I only use Wi-Fi on my systems.)
I would look at what driver is being used via
sudo dmesg | grep 'Ethernet driver'
Are you able to activate the connection using nmtui?
sudo nmtui

When I do sudo dmesg | grep 'Ethernet driver'
nothing appears
But when I do sudo dmesg | grep 'r8169'
I get this:

All of you are using the same driver which, after doing a lot of Googling, appears to not be supported by newer Linux kernels (at this time?).
The Parrot repo appears to only go back to kernel 5.10.0-9 (image/headers). Could someone install and boot into this kernel to see if it makes a difference? PS: I’m not a Parrot Developer, just trying to help out.

Well, apparently it isn’t just the ethernet since my onboard wireless adapter also won’t work if I don’t do sudo modprobe b43
The drivers are there, they’re just unclaimed

I uncommented the lines
alias pci:v00001186d00004300sv00001186sd00004B10bcsc i* r8168
alias pci:v000010ECd00008168svsd bcsc i* r8168
in /etc/modprobe.d/r8168-dkms.conf and it seems to work. It’s right?

Yeah it worked, turns out the driver was blacklisted for some reason after the last kernel update.
in my case I also had to comment out blacklist b43
from sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/broadcom-sta-dkms.conf
so my onboard wifi card would work normally
