Thread: Ethernet won't work, but Wifi will.


so bought compaq/hp mini 311 , put ubuntu 11.04 on it. far works reasonably well, have big problem.
started university , moved student accommodation, has high-speed internet access, cable only. inserted cable, , under options in wifi menu, found 2 ethernet connections. 1 auto eth0, , other 1 same name of accommodation. neither worked. computer tried connect, failed every time. none of flatmates had problems, except one. had set special proxy setting, , told me how it, didn't work me either. doing wrong or ethernet adaptor problem? there new drivers install or something?
helping.

by "wifi menu", mean networkmanager menu (which has other options vpn connections, 'enable networking',...etc), , connections mentioned shown under "wired network", right? if not, please post screenshot of saw them.

if connections got listed automatically plugged-in cable , computer 'tried connect', interface , working.

cable connection need id-password to connect network? other flatmates able connect automatically without authentication or manual configuration?
