Manually (without wpasupplicant) connect to wired network?
Re: Manually (without wpasupplicant) connect to wired network?
Please take a look at this page at the Ubuntu Community Help Wiki, and the references cited therein. Excuse my ignorance, but why would you use WPA supplicant to connect to a wired network?

My point exactly! That is why I uninstalled it, not knowing that I would have trouble with the wired network. The background to this is that after I downloaded the newest system updates earlier this week, I lost WPA2 support in Network manager. And ever since, everything relating to networks has been very strange indeed. I had to reinstall from a partimage backup, download the 107 latest updates and now I still have no WIFI. However I did get back my wired network. Thanks for your reply.
