[Ubuntu-SG] [Slugnet] DNS on Ubuntu question

[Soh Kam Yung]

Will this (temporary) fix work for you?

1. Select the connection (right click the network icon->Edit Connections)
2. Select the "Wireless" tab, your wireless connection (identified by
SSID) and select "Edit"
3. Select the "IPv4 settings" tab (or IPv6 though I don't think
wireless routers use IPv6)
4. In the "Method" option, choose "Automatic (DHCP) addresses only"
5. Enter the Starhub DNS address in the now available "DNS Servers" entry.

Regards,
Kam Yung
