I can bring up a static set card with no cable. I would double check your network settings and if you have multiple nics on the machine I have known the nics to "swap" their eth* assignment. i.e the second nic (eth1) with no cable would be assigned to the active eth0 configure. To fix that last one, just turn off the second nic in bios if you don't need it. -- </blockquote><div>Fred The interface is configured for static ip inside the LAN 192.168.1.101 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1 with dns entries from my ISP There are no other interfaces. ifconfig shows eth0 and lo It was working fine until the updates applied this afternoon (46 pkgs) Regards Jack </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> -- ubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users</a> </blockquote></div>
