Dear all,
I think my Internet usage (MTNL Triband) has increased ever since I switched over to Ubuntu! Earlier when I had Windows XP I could disable Triband by right clicking the Internet connectivity icon on the bottom right of the screen. There is no such blinking icon on Ubuntu and the net stays on even while I want to work offline. How to get this so that I can switch off Internet when I want to work offline?
In Ubuntu you can go to, System -> Administration -> Networking. There click on the interface (most probably eth0) and click on Deactivate. Click on Activate if you want to enable the interface again.
The MTNL triband also comes with a power pack that can be switched OFF or ON as required.
Regards,
Rony.
