I just installed 8.10 and ran into this problem. Initially, it used DHCP to connect. I changed it to 'Manual', set a new IP, changed the DNS server, and the search domain. None of these changes took effect immediately, but there was no indication that they would not. (IIRC, they did take effect immediately in 8.04.) I went and looked at resolv.conf and the contents matched those that DHCP would detect. I then checked and uncheck 'Enable Networking', which solved the problem. Yes, that's an obvious thing to try for most of us, but I think the user should somehow be alerted with the option to reset the connection if it's not simply reset automatically.
