This is just an educated guest but i think ethernet is called ethernet as:
In the late 19th century, luminiferous aether or ether, meaning light-bearing aether, was the term used to describe a medium for the propagation of light.[1]
(Due to the negative outcome of aether-drift experiments like the Michelson-Morley experiment, the aether as a mechanical medium having a state of motion, is not used anymore in modern physics, and is replaced by the theory of relativity and quantum theory.) (wikipedia)
and well a ethernet cable is used to send information in the form of light to a net of computers to produce a LAN etc so this is why i think it derives form Einsteins hypothesis.
