I cant get my plex server to recognize my tuner. when discovering devices it just spins and never returns anything. I can see tha linux rcognizes it:

Internet connections (adapters) are also going nuts.

Please stabilize the host network (restart host too)

When i first added the tuner card it was causing the ethernet adapters to be disabled on start. I have since updated netplan. That seems to have resolved the connectivity.

I don’t think it disabled them, they just got renamed. I had the same issued on Ubuntu Server 18.04. It’s been awhile but I believe I ran ifconfig to see what new assignment was ie… enp7s0 or whatever it is changed to, then I edited /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml to reflect the change, once I rebooted, network was working again after adding new PCI-E card.

Sorry, I didn’t clarify You are correct, this is exactly what I had to do to restore the network connectivity
