I have the DSL399 conn via ethernet. I am running Ubuntu 5.04. I have trouble configuring the connection. The problem is that once upon a time i had used a modem and Ubuntu still considers the modem as the default and does not remember the settings for the ethernet conn. I have configured & activated the ethernet conn umpteen times and disabled the modem conn as many times.

Pl help. Because of this I have to use XP instead of practising shell scripts (I am 2 mths old int the world of Linux and loving it).

P.S.: The MTNL tech support is of no avail as the troll who services my area cannot tell between internet and ethernet . He is lost searching for 'ethernet explorer' if I delete the dsk shortcut to IE. Action express priorities. - M K Gandhi
