Hi:

 

The ethernet chip is part of the motherboard, and cannot be upgraded or replaced.

 

If you want to upgrade to a gigabit ethernet adapter, I suggest you purchase an external USB to RJ-45 10/100/1000 ethernet adapter.

Many new laptops now don't have RJ-45 card. I actually own and use the following adapter, bought from Amazon USA
