I cannot access the internet while in Kubuntu through the router.

Wow, that seemed to work.  I can connect to the internet now and I can 
configure the router with the ip address, thanks.  Just in case you 
wanted to see it I have put below the console output.

I will once I have some time.  Will the same command work with the wireless?

Thanks for your help, both of you.
