It has been observed on both wired and wireless connections. My current one: Acer Aspire 1410 Lucid installed from daily-live cd from April 12th. The simplest way to reproduce this is to go to your wireless or wired connection in nm-applet (network-manager-gnome applet) and change the ipv4 settings from "automatic (DHCP)" to "automatic (DHCP) addresses only." Then enter Google's Public DNS servers "8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4" (without the quotes) (presumably other DNS servers would work.) You can read about Google's service here, I am simply using it as a practical example. http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/ After hitting apply, either the new settings won't go into effect, or the connection will disconnect. This was not observed before upgrading from Ubuntu 9.10 to lucid on at least one machine. The workaround is to click on the connection name/entry in nm-applet to force it to reconnect.
