Please help
If you (right) click on the network icon in you pannel you can Enable or Disable Network Connections.

Hello.
If you wish to receive help on this issue I'm afraid we're going to need some additional information regarding your network configuration and system specifications, such as:
- NIC vendor
- Can the machine see your network devices? (lspci -C network)
- What does the output of ifconfig say?
- Do you have an IP Address?
You may also wish to consult the online documentation located at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkDevices
Disclaimer: Yes I usually talk crap
if i enter the ip addres, net mask and dns address manually it shows i'm connected but i still can't go online.
here's the output of the commands
elsa@elsa-laptop:~$ lspci -C network
lspci: invalid option -- 'C'
Usage: lspci [<switches>]
Basic display modes:
-mm Produce machine-readable output (single -m for an obsolete format)
-t Show bus tree
Display options:
-v Be verbose (-vv for very verbose)
-k Show kernel drivers handling each device
-x Show hex-dump of the standard part of the config space
-xxx Show hex-dump of the whole config space (dangerous; root only)
-xxxx Show hex-dump of the 4096-byte extended config space (root only)
-b Bus-centric view (addresses and IRQ's as seen by the bus)
-D Always show domain numbers
Resolving of device ID's to names:
-n Show numeric ID's
-nn Show both textual and numeric ID's (names & numbers)
-q Query the PCI ID database for unknown ID's via DNS
-qq As above, but re-query locally cached entries
-Q Query the PCI ID database for all ID's via DNS
Selection of devices:
-s [[[[<domain>]:]<bus>]:][<slot>][.[<func>]] Show only devices in selected slots
-d [<vendor>]:[<device>] Show only devices with specified ID's
Other options:
-i <file> Use specified ID database instead of /usr/share/misc/pci.ids.gz
-p <file> Look up kernel modules in a given file instead of default modules.pcimap
-M Enable `bus mapping' mode (dangerous; root only)
PCI access options:
-A <method> Use the specified PCI access method (see `-A help' for a list)
-O <par>=<val> Set PCI access parameter (see `-O help' for a list)
-G Enable PCI access debugging
-H <mode> Use direct hardware access (<mode> = 1 or 2)
-F <file> Read PCI configuration dump from a given file

I've googled and searched for info and I couldn't figure it out.
thanks for your help
Sorry just copied the commands and didn't check them.
Have you any other devices connected to the network?Code:lshw -C network

there is nothing else connected.
i am using a cable modem directly connected to my desktop.
I switch the cable to the laptop when i wanna try to connect to the internet
from the laptop. i have the same settings on the laptop but i can't access the
internet from the laptop.
The only difference i see when i check the connection information from the desktop
and the laptop is that the laptop doesn't show a default route while the desktop does.
Thanks again for your help =)
