I must have messed up trying to remove the DSL network entry. I cannot find a way to remove it in Ubuntu users guide. Settings/Network shows two Wired entries; the top wireless one is working (TIAllAccess); the lower Wired entry is for the DSL router . I suppose this is the entry I need to remove but how? I did "delete" but it still appears. Settings/Network/Options shows an error Editing the lower Wired entry for the DSL router. When I click on Menu bar/Edit Connections it shows only one Ethernet router (TIAllAccess wireless). Then I click on Menu bar/Edit Connections/Edit TIAllAccess and it shows the MAC details of the router (TIAllAccess wireless). After I click on Menu bar/Connection Information it shows details of the router (TIAllAccess wireless). I hope you can follow the above info and tell me how to remove the second Wired Connection. Maybe that will allow my browsers to connect to the TIAllAccess wireless when it is already running; it will not switch off and on again easily. Apologies for the long story from a retired Ubuntu Unity user. I attached screenshots for each of the above steps but that was rejected as too big. Thanks.

Go to the one you DO NOT want to connect to, click on it and click on edit. Under general make sure that Automatically connect to this network when it is available is unchecked, then click on save. Go to the one you want to connect to and click on it. Click on edit Click on general tab and make sure the Automatically connect to this network when available has a check mark. Click on save and you should be good to go. You can also click on the one you don't want to connect to and click on delete, but if it is broadcasting it might show back up. So I would just make sure it is not set to automatically connect to. Let me know if this helps. <pre class="moz-signature" cols="72">-- Scott Blair: Thanks, Scott Blair USMC Defending your freedoms since 10 November 1775 Save on backup time "BackupDevice=Null" If you don't stand behind our troops, feel free to stand in front of them.</pre> </body> </html>
