Hello,
Genymotion/VirtualBox created a new network entry vboxnet0 that constantly tryies to connect even when I am already connected to the internet. I have to regularly disconnect it.
I can mark it to not connect automatically and make it not available for all users but I don't intend to break Genymotion or VirtualBox virtual machines. If that is a possibility.
I am not sure what to look into to resolve this issue. Any pointers would be nice.

Hi,
that's because NetworkManager automatically tries to activate all connections which are marked to be automatically connected. You can safely mark this connection not to be connected automatically as it's probably some bridged connection created automatically by Virtualbox and you can always activate it manually later when needed.
Cheers, Jan

Thanks Jan,
Is there a way to tell what might have created this connection? Is this connection going to interfere with the regular wifi connection that I use for internet access?
