I use the RJ45 all the time now [P3]. Found that you have to make sure
it is fully seated, and that the plastic spring-tab thingie has
completely engaged (decompressed). I've heard that IT techs force them
into the RJ45 socket, so it's not a problem isolated to the K3's RJ45.
Otoh, IT techs often find it necessary to cuss at inanimate objects...
and use a bigger hammer when necessary.

Has anyone ever heard of an RJ-45 Pin Alignment tool? I suspect there
is some physical issue that is not resolved by removing the boot and
everything else that I've tried. Forget about it staying connected if
you move anything on the desk. It just seems like some fundamental
issue, possible with the socket, as manufactured.
My search for any kind of pin alignment or calibration tool has been
unsuccessful.
Anyone really resolved this? By resolved, I mean you can move things
without disconnecting.
