I have a BeagleBone Black connected over USB and Ethernet. At some point scp (pscp to be precise) did not work anymore but the already estaplished ssh connection was still workin. I restarted the BBB and now I cannot connect over ssh anymore. Looking at the LED's there blinking normaly so I did power up and boot up normally.
I did try ping - no success...
When it is connected over USB I normaly get a message that a new network is connected. But also not this time. I'm not sure if it is an issue of the BBB or my Laptop since I updated quit a lot on my Laptop prior to this failure.
Any suggestions what to do?
OS on Host: Ubuntu OS on BBB: Angstrom

Thank you everybody for trying to help me. As it turned out it was a hardware problem.
I suspect that I had a shitty USB cable, when I plugged in the BBB in an other port. The connection was comming and going and when I used an other cable the problem was solved.
Sorry for not ruling this out first, somehow I didn't think about failing of a static piece.
