| 1135982 | 2010-09-10 02:50:00 | I have Ubuntu 10.04 installed on a HP PC. I can get no internet connection thru the wired ethernet. Googling gives many suggested solutions, none of which have worked. Can someone here help me to get it working? |

| 1135983 | 2010-09-10 03:00:00 | Might be a good idea if you also posted the model of the machine | nedkelly (9059) | ||
| 1135984 | 2010-09-10 04:01:00 | Could you please post the following (these are commands that need to be run in a shell): The output of 'uname -a' The output of 'sudo ifconfig -a' The output of 'sudo lspci' The output of 'sudo lsmod' The entire contents of the file '/etc/network/interfaces' |

| 1135987 | 2010-09-10 16:27:00 | Edit the file '/etc/network/interfaces' to add the following two lines: auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcpOnce you've done that, reboot the system. Did that fix your issue, or are you still having problems with it? When you tried to renew the dhclient lease, did this temporarily fix things, or not? Have you rebooted the router since having this problem? If none of the above helped, it's possible that the router's DHCP server has simply crashed. |

| 1135988 | 2010-09-11 03:37:00 | Erayd, I really appreciate your help. I feel that with your assistance, I will resolve this problem. Here are the answers to your questions: Did that fix your issue, or are you still having problems with it?: No, I still have no internet connection. In fact, after adding the lines to /etc/network/interfaces, the icon for network connectivity disappeared from my panel. Strange, no? When you tried to renew the dhclient lease, did this temporarily fix things, or not? No it did not. Have you rebooted the router since having this problem? I have no router. |

| 1135991 | 2010-09-11 06:14:00 | Agent_24, I have an Aaris modem from Comcast. It should probably still have a DHCP server though. Have you tried rebooting it? |
