Thank you very much!. Yes, I mean all of that. (My system is in spanish so I made a rough translation).

Thank you for you reply . I cankot blame the distro because I have the same problem under several "USB live" distros. 
My main concern is it maybe aproblem in the computer since this same long cable works in oyher computers.

Hello, I am new at the forum, I have searched for this issue before posting. I've also been reading a lot.
I am able to connect to the Internet with a 1.5 mtrs RJ45 cord.
However when I try with a 30 mtrs cords, connection is impossible.  (the same cord works perfectly with other computers a laptop with an intel i5 processor and a netbook with an Atom processor)
The system detects it but I get a generic IP for IPV4 is: 169.254.115.247 (sometimes I mannaged to get the correct one)
I have change everything I could in Connman.
I cannot connect to internet. I wonder if there is an incompatibility regarding the processor and the long cord.
I have checked on the Intel web site but the network device is quite old and there are only drivers for Windows XP

This is my system

I cannot provide information regardin "ipconfig" or "lshw" (terminal says: order not found)

On Connman It detects the MAC Address
Everything is in automatic , however by setting things manually it doesn't work either.
I 've reading about a problem with the kernel. Could this be a driver issue? (cord works fine with other computers, and this computer works fine with a shorter cord hmm )

this is my etc/network/interfaces  file

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
# This is an autoconfigured IPv6 interface
iface eth0 inet6 auto

And here there is a picture from booting screen (after I tried enable/disable LAN controller in BIOS)
https://ibb.co/TM5h96W it takes a lot of time at booting . For installation i used the netinstall iso.
