by the way, I tried to set connection from within ubuntu. AFAIK there are at least 2 ways to do this. one is using the network connection gui, and one is to use /etc/network/interfaces. Are these the correct ways to solve this problem?
I tried to copy the settings from windows connection to setup the connection in ubuntu, but there are problems.
first, in windows there are IP address, subnet mask and dns servers, but no default gateway specified. and with these settings in ubuntu connection manager (or whatever it is called) it does not work. I use the username and password that my internet provider gave me but it doesn't connect.
second problem is that the abovementioned ip address and dns server etc. change everytime I connect in windows.
And to make my problem clear, I have dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu, in windows I can connect to internet with the Alice software, but in ubuntu I cannot.
Thanks in advance for any help!
