Ethernet won't connect
I left my computer running for an hour or two, idle, and when I logged back in, the ethernet connection was stuck on "connecting." I should probably mention that I installed some tools with Katoolin, which may have messed with my network settings. What steps should I take, beyond router reset, unplugging/replugging the cable, and restarting network-manager? Thanks!

Have you checked to ensure the connection isn't still there? Sometimes the UI gets confused and says connecting when it's established. Runifconfig -ato check and see if the Ethernet interface has an IP address. Also, what version of Ubuntu are you on?

ifconfig -a to check and see if the Ethernet interface has an IP address. Also, what version of Ubuntu are you on?– Minty
