I'm no networking wizard here, but why are you manually configuring your eth0? What is the need to do this? I've never had a problem connecting with any Ubuntu derivative. :?:

Unless you had your network cable connected when you did the install you will prolly need to configure Network manager the 1st time, to be able to connect, it should recognize it after that.
Your wireless might also be interfering. make sure it's disabled in network manager.

post the options you get when you click on the Network Manager icon,
and when you right click on it.

copy & paste these commands in a terminal
Code: Select all
ifconfig >> ~/Desktop/lan.txt

Code: Select all
sudo lshw -C network >> ~/Desktop/lan.txt

Then post the contents of the lan.txt file that you will find on your desktop.

You may have noticed, yours is missing the internet address.
One of the bad things about forcing an ip, unless you have a static ip you must update your configuration every time your net provider changes it on you. I would recommend you undo the changes and use Network Manager to enable networking and setup your wired connection.

That doesn't tell me anything.
Since you forced the ip, it will say anything you set it to.
You need to undo all the changes you made and reconfigure your wired connection.
If you absolutely must set the ip manually, by all means call tech support for your net provider and ask what your IP address is. While you are on the phone ask if you have a Static IP or a Dynamic IP.
If you have a dynamic ip you will be calling them every time you can't connect and realize they have changed it on you.

What are you asking? Maybe we're not understanding your question???Do you mean that everytime you boot up, you have to click on the network icon and select wireless??? If that is the case, go to MENU>SYSTEM>PREFERENCES>NETWORK CONFIGURATION select WIRELESS...hilight the connection you want to use...then click "EDIT" there you can select "CONNECT AUTOMATICALLY"
Another alternative is to use WIFI RADAR located under MENU>INTERNET...it should detect your network router, and you should be able to select it there and configure it to start from there...hope this helps
