Public bug reported: I'm not sure why, but regardless of whether I'm on wired or wireless, nm-applet always reports "No network connection".
ifconfig -a, from when I'm on the wired port: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0E:35:D6:73:B3 BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:317 errors:26 dropped:1609 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:1 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:2380693 (2.2 MiB) TX bytes:24624 (24.0 KiB) Interrupt:5 Base address:0x6000 Memory:fafef000-fafeffff eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0F:1F:B8:98:4F inet addr:192.168.41.16 Bcast:192.168.41.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::20f:1fff:feb8:984f/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:4103 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:3289 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:2844364 (2.7 MiB) TX bytes:377964 (369.1 KiB) Interrupt:11 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:595 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:595 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:36008 (35.1 KiB) TX bytes:36008 (35.1 KiB) sit0 Link encap:IPv6-in-IPv4 NOARP MTU:1480 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) When I'm on wireless, I get a similar behaviour. ** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- nm-applet always reports "No network connection" https://launchpad.net/bugs/67672 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
