well - thank you for all your advice, gentlemen. I shall get back to you
as soon as I have digested and applied the apprpriate sections of this:

Rowan,
The reason why many ISPs do not 'support' Linux is that Linux is not an
operating system in the sense that Windows or MacOS are. It is a kernel,
and there are about a dozen popular operating systems that use it
(distributions) and a hundred more of the unpopular ones. Ubuntu is just
one of t
Ok found the problem after some further googling:-)
(Isn't it always the case, been looking all day and after I ask I find
the answer!)
The devices are reset in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
Changing this allows what I want.

The engineers at LinuxCertified just drew my attention to this:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkAdmin
which is the relevant section of the official online Ubuntu manual, of
which I had until now not been informed, so I guess I will find my
solutions there.

Rowan,
You came here looking for help. We are trying to help you. Instead of
being contradictory could you not just post the answers to the points in
Michaels message so that we can attempt to help you resolve your issue.

It should be obvious enough that some ISPs at least claim to be able to

Lets start from the beginning.

It most likely already is set. The default configuration is for
ethernet to be enabled for automatic connection.
Plug your computer into the Homehub using an ethernet cable and try
acecssing the web page detailed below and let us know what happens.

The white Home Hub should happily work with any machine connected via

Basically, if everything is plugged in correctly, when you connect your PC
via Ethernet you should have a working Internet connection within a few
