Well, you know that with OS X, you can shutdown any network interface,
right? This is particularly useful with a laptop because those interfaces
sure use some power.
So, before throwing everything overboad, I would first go to the Network
preferences pane, then select "Network Ports Configuration" from the "Show"
popup. There, make sure that "Built-in Ethernet" is enabled. If it already
is, then, I don't know.
