Networking In Kubuntu

This document provides information about configuring systems to connect to networks, the internet, and other machines on a shared network.


Wired (LAN)

With DHCP, settings are automatically configured by the router. Wired network connections are selected as default when they are connected and available.

DHCP Connections

Most routers use DHCP to allocate IP addresses. To connect:

  1. Click the Networking Interface icon in the System Tray.

  2. Under Nätverksgränssnitt, välj namnet på det nätverk du vill ansluta till.

Fasta anslutningar

Instead of DHCP, a static connection can be configured.

Procedure 1. Konfigurera en fast anslutning

  1. Click the Networking Interface in the System Tray area and select Manage Connections....

  2. Klicka på fliken Trådbundet.

  3. Select the desired connection if it is available and click the Edit... button. If the proper connection is not available, click the Add... button.

  4. Välj alternativet Manuell i rullgardinsmenyn under Metod i fliken IP Adress.

  5. Enter the details and click the OK button.

  6. Click the OK in the main window.
