Cannot Get Back Ethernet Connection

[john.moniz-rieW9WUcm8FFJ04o6PK0Fg at public.gmane.org]

Do you mean to delete the file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules? I don't see persistent-net-interfaces.

try killing persistent-net-interfaces too in case it's wrong somehow (/etc/udev/rules.d)

Hello everyone;

After many years of trouble free ethernet connections, I have now lost it (in more ways than one) and cannot get an IP address on my Ubuntu set up. The condensed version of this story is that it won't connect, regardless of whether I try DHCP or static IP address. Ubuntu just won't give me an IP address.



On this same box, I also have Vista and Fedora. I am able to connect with either, both with DHCP and static address configurations.

Here's a comparison of "dmesg | grep eth" for both Fedora and Ubuntu.



Fedora:
<snip>
forcedeth 0000:00:07.0: irq 25 for MSI/MSI-X
eth0: no IPv6 routers present

Ubuntu:
<snip>
[  480.187616] forcedeth 0000:00:07.0: irq 25 for MSI/MSI-X
[  490.348024] eth0: no[  480.187616] forcedeth 0000:00:07.0: irq 25 for MSI/MSI-X


[  490.348024] eth0: no IPv6 routers present
[  611.855532] forcedeth 0000:00:07.0: irq 25 for MSI/MSI-X
[  622.492015] eth0: no IPv6 routers present

I don't like what I see from Ubuntu and I have a feeling that it's not good. However, feelings don't fix things and I don't know where to go to fix it. I've been at this for days...



Any help would be appreciated. And I can expand the story if necessary, just thought I'd zero in on the above first.

Thanks,

John.
