I'm running nm-applet 0.6.5 with a wireless card and router. I recently had to change ISP's and they had me change the way my router was working from Automatic Configuration - DHCP to PPPoE.
I realized that I wasn't connecting to the router with my server anymore, (I'm running Xfce to make life easier) so I changed nm to allow for roaming - everything works great. But I would like to have that machine with a static IP address so I can do some port forwarding through the router. So I click on the icon, select Manual configuration, and select Wireless, go into the properties and turn off roaming, select the ESSID from the drop-down, select WPA Personal as the security, enter the password, select Static IP address under the Configuration options, give it an address of 192.168.1.200, give the netmask as 255.255.255.0 and the gateway address as 192.168.1.1 - and nothing. Even rebooted with the new settings. I can, however, browse the machine with other computers on my network. Any ideas on where to look? -- Matt Burkhardt, MSTM President Impari Systems, Inc.
