A new kernel came in and installed.  The led lights up when the cable is
plugged into the router.  On the last item the router light does come on
when I plug the ethernet chord into the computer.  The icon does not change
when I do so other than the 5 band network icon pulsates, just like it does
when you are connecting wirelessly.  The icon itself is fan shaped with 4
or 5 bars.  On the drop down list it shows 'ethernet disconnect' my current
wifi connection and others.

I have tried connecting to the ethernet with wifi  disabled, to no effect.
I logged in as guest and I have the same problem.
