Just disabling connection will work after disabling nobody or neither you can
access through this connection. Or if you don't want to see it at all in
Device Manager disable your ethernet card.

Disable it in Device Manager or physically remove it from the computer.

Bobby,

Do you have an Ethernet card in the computer? First, un install the card.
 
Uninstall it if it is an expansion card. You can use Device Manger for this.
Start -- Run -- devmgmt.msc

If it is an onboard network adapter:
Reboot your computer and go into CMOS setup. Usually done by holding the Del
or F1 key. Disable the adapter from there.

The simplest solution is to right-click the connection, disable it,
and then ignore it.

If you really want to get rid of it, you'll have to:

1. Uninstall the Ethernet adapter in Device Manager.

2. Prevent Windows from detecting and re-installing the Ethernet
adapter the next time it reboots:

a. If you can physically remove the adapter from the computer,
do that.

b. If the adapter is built into the motherboard, use the computer's
BIOS setup program to disable the adapter.
