I used the settings window that appears when I click the top-right hand corner of the screen, click Ethernet and click "Wired Settings" I went in there to add the fixed IP details, used it for a few hours and then went back into the same settings window and changed it back to DHCP mode. When I changed it back to DHCP mode, I didn't delete the values in the boxes for fixed/static IP. > Can you provide steps how I can reproduce the issue?
