OK, you are not very forth coming on what the problem is. We will need more detail about what isn't working.
If you can ping your gateway then the interface is up.

What? Are you trying to get it working properly in Debian, or are you trying to "fix it" using Debian so it'll work on Windows?

If you have this problem on Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Debian, with such a common and well-supported NIC on all OSs, then it's probably a hardware problem.

Sounds like a bad NIC, bad port on the switch/router, or bad cable.
