Bugzilla – Bug 112601
Fails testing internet connection, as the ethernet is not connected, even though the wireless connection is connected
Last modified: 2007-08-07 07:19:40 UTC
On updating from beta1 to beta2, YaST2 tests the internet connection. Because there is onboard ethernet which is not connected to anything, the internet test fails, because it cannot get an IP address via DHCP, even though my wireless connection is up and working. The work-around for this is to set the ethernet connection to a static IP address, then setting up the ethernet connection does not fail (even though it is not connected), and it can go through and find the wireless connection.
Not a YOU bug at all.
Maby this should be fixed. But it is not a YOU-Bug. Reassigning to mvidner@suse.de, hope that is OK.
Reassigning to the new maintainer of yast2-network.
