    Hi perro68.

    Could you post the results of these commands while trying to connect using your wired connection?
    Code:
    sudo lshw -C network

lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 eth

ifconfig

route -n

nslookup ubuntu.com

dig ubuntuforums.org
    Regards.

    No routing info - probably a bad thing...
    Does it have info when wireless?
