port of DSL router...gets detected immediately).

Disable the one on the motherboard in the bios. That way you are sure
that it doesn't mix things up for whatever reason.

Tried setting the
Ethernet to DHCP (as I don't use it), disposed off with the gnome
Network Manager applet & ...the grayed-out buttons were not there
anymore & I could de-select the DHCP option....then re-configured &
entered the static IP, DNS's, & now the net connection is as before.

Great to see that it worked out OK.
