Possible to turn off ethernet connection without having to pull out the cable?

by trial10

Using Mi Box. Is it possible to turn off ethernet connection from within android tv, so I can leave the cable hooked to it, without having to unplug the ethernet cable? Cause sometimes I have to tether it to mobile broadband.

It depends if box has that option in network setting. In nvidia shield it’s available which allows you to turn Ethernet off without the need to remove the cable.

You can activate USB-debug mode in Developer settings and then usb-lan will stop working until you turn off debugging again

I take it you're you are using a USB ethernet? There's no option to turn it off other than to unplug.
