Hey folks!

Recently switched to Ubuntu (Hardy) so bare with me :)

I have successfully connected to the internet with both my WIFI and wired card on this laptop.. but I seem to be having a wierd issue:

When at work I use the wired connection, and set a static IP.

Upon a reboot.. this IP setting still remains, but when I try to access the internet I get no response, until I change my static IP to something else.

Once I have changed my client IP .. everything instantly works.. really got me confused here.

Any ideas or tips you could give me would be great!

Cheers

Gomezie

No one anything to add? :(

Even if it could be something on startup that I could check
