After fixing what appears to be a universal bug concerning wireless on an ASUS U56E notebook running Ubuntu 12.04, my wired connection has stopped working. The fix I found was:

How do I get Wireless working on an Asus notebook U56E

When the wireless works, the wired does not. When I remove the command from the file that makes the fix permanent and restart, the wireless no longer works and the wired works again.

Still new to Linux, so I may be overlooking something, but does anyone have any thoughts on this problem?

Wireless and wired hardware info:

02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N + WiMAX 6150 [8086:0885] (rev 67)
04:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Atheros Communications Inc. AR8151 v2.0 Gigabit Ethernet [1969:1083] (rev c0)

The conf file is named: /etc/modprobe.d/iwlagn.conf and the content is

options iwlwifi bt_coex_active=0

Please delete the file: 

sudo rm /etc/modprobe.d/iwlagn.conf

and write a new one: 

gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf

Add a single line: 

options iwlwifi 11n_disable=1

Reboot and let us have your report.
