Networking- Wireless and Wired not working
- by JJ White
So everything in Ubuntu has been working great until networking stopped working. I've spent the better part of two days scouring for a fix with no luck. Here is my info...your help would so be appreciated.
grep -i eth /var/log/syslog | tail
Sep 25 16:31:59 jj-laptop NetworkManager[970]: <info> (eth0): cleaning up...
Sep 25 16:31:59 jj-laptop NetworkManager[970]: <info> (eth0): taking down device.

Sep 25 16:35:54 jj-laptop NetworkManager[970]: <info> (eth0): deactivating device (reason 'managed') [2]
and then
ifconfig -a

also
iwconfig

and of course
