    Accidently Uninstalled Network app

    So my internet stopped working yesterday so in an attempt to fix it i somehow removed the network managing app. So now i have no internet on ubuntu. I need to figure out a way to get the network app onto ubuntu again so i can have internet. Oh i have ubuntu 10.10.

    -Thanks

    What if you try

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install network-manager
    It might install without an internet connection(??) If it doesn't download the package on some other system and install it by just double clicking. Dependecies shouldn't be a problem so download only the network-manager package here.

    Do you mean the applet up in right hand corner? in terminal:
    Code:
    nm-applet
    If whole package was tossed use post 2 or 3. This is only for the applet on upper toolbar
