Ethernet adapter stopped working??

[Hurban]

Hi,

I have been searching the web for a problem that is very similar to something that happened with El Capitan a few years ago talking about a bad malware-protection. I was wondering if this could be the case with High Sierra?

My problem is that although Network acknowledges my ethernet/thunderbolt adapter (showing it as green), the web-browser is not picking up. It is very strange as it seemed to work flawlessly, but all of a sudden I cannot use the ethernet. I can still use the wi-fi from the router and my colleague is using a direct ethernet-connection from the same router without any problem.

Any ideas?

Best wishes,
Hurban

What adapter are you using? I went through two before I have the one I use now.
