Same thing. Plasma-widget-networkmanagement doesn't work with fixed ip-add. on my hp550 with kubuntu karmic. My configuration: SSID: default Mode: Ad hoc or Infrastructure BSSID: Interface: eth2 MTU: Automatic Security: None Configure: Manual IP-address: 192.168.1.100 Subnetwork mask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.1.1 Search domians: DNS-servers: 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
What seems to happen, is that the widget does not route through the gateway: # route Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 2 0 0 eth2 link-local * 255.255.0.0 U 1000 0 0 eth2 r...@l# host dk-hostmaster.dk ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached r...@lap# ping 192.168.1.1 PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=127 time=7.41 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=127 time=2.54 ms r...@lap# route add default gw 192.168.1.1 r...@lap# host dk-hostmaster.dk dk-hostmaster.dk has address 193.163.102.23 dk-hostmaster.dk mail is handled by 10 vocal.dk-hostmaster.dk. If I restart the connection, the gateway route is lost again, but immediately re-established by: r...@lap# route add default gw 192.168.1.1 If I set Configure: Automatic (dhcp), everything works fine, and it routes throgh the gateway. Conclusion, the bug is that manual fixing addresses etc does not establish a routing through the gateway. -- changing the wired network profile, doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/443235 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
