Re: [Bug 283233] Re: network manager won't save fixed ip settings on wired connections
Yup, I also experienced similar symptoms. This thing has multiple problems and un-intuitive behaviours, and needs to be fixed!

I'm trying to set-up a static IP address for my PC but the Network Settings don't 'stick' as the guy above 'photonymous' says, and when i reboot the 'Auto eth0' connection resurfaces. Further confusingly the Network Control Panel in Ubuntu claims that the 'Auto-eth0' connection is 'never' whereas my newly created 'My eth0' connection is '3 minutes' but when i delete the auto-connection the system tray proudly proclaims that that 'My network is now disconnected', and in a few moments the Network Manager announces through the System Tray that 'My eth0' connection is now connected. But when i restart the computer the 'Auto eth0' connection is again created and it is the default connection. My new connection is there but not active. I manually then have to convince the system that 'My eth0' is the one to use again, but no matter what i do these settings are lost next time start Ubuntu which then goes back using 'Auto eth0'. This didn't use to be no problem in Ubuntu 8.04. -- network manager won't save fixed ip settings on wired connections https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/283233 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. -- network manager won't save fixed ip settings on wired connections https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/283233 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Yup, i was able to do this, but it is very flaky. On bootup, it takes it a while to figure out to use the manually configured one, but eventually uses it.
