I just plugged in my ethernet cable into my new laptop for the first time.
Then I try to take it out but it is stuck.

Has this ever happened to you, how did you fix it?

Thanks

Hey, it has happened to me before too. In fact, it is common when using new laptops.

Solution? Keep pulling it!! Once it comes out, it won't get stuck like that again.

Have you pressed the little clip on top of the connector before trying to unplug it?
