Troubleshooting Can't open Chrome, cause restart and breaks Ethernet connection. Need to powerwash?

First i started having problems that Ethernet connection suddenly stopped working. Needing to restart. Now when i click on the Chromebrowser icon, it soft restarts the system, and Ethernet internet is lost. I can open Chrome in incognito mode, it doesn't cause a restart. I have disabled all extensions. Also noticed that if i enable wifi-connection, i can click on Chrome, it opens browser without restarting the system. So it seems there's a bug in ethernet connection, or hardware issue.
