Answered my own question. Open a terminal session (if you're on the Ubuntu desktop go to Applications > Accessories > terminal.
Type (w/o single quotes) 'sudo joe /etc/network/interfaces' NOTE: "joe" is a simple editor I use. If you are familiar with vi, use it. If you want a graphical text editor, replace "joe" with "gedit". Okay, now the file is open, and usually is a short file. There will likely be a section very much like this one (asteriks represent actual numbers): iface eth0 inet static address 192.1*.*.* netmask 255.255.255.0 nameserver *.*.*.* gateway *.*.*.* If any of these lines are present, put a hashmark in front of them. Save the file. And reboot. You should see gnome recognize the network at that point. -- Connected online but NM displays "No network connection" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/243476 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
