Yep.

It's not a laptop, but the NIC is an on-board one. There's definitely
something funny going on though. PCI reports in dmesg that this
device is:
pci2: <ACPI PCI bus> on pcib3
pci2: physical bus=2
found-> vendor=0x10ec, dev=0x8168, revid=0x01
but the text stamped on the chip is:
RTL8111B
58296S1 G535B
