Hi I have tried repeatedly to launch metamask with the test network, first on chrome and it just spins out and never connects and I know the node is running.. I also tried a fresh account on brave and got the same behaviour.. any thoughts?

Tried to reproduce on Ubuntu/Brave and not getting reproduction. Can you try to disable and re-enable MetaMask on about:preferences#extensions ?

Hi, thanks for the suggestion I have tried a few time to disable and reenable and it has no effect.. When I use testrpc it connects immediately though.. its quite strange..

This is happening to me as well, I'm on Ubuntu 16.04 virtual machine. When using ganache as network it works fine but switching to my private network just reproduces this behavior.
