Hi, You can set non dhcp Network Manager on a specified interface thus: Right click on the network manager icon and click on edit connections. Navigate to "wireless" tab (in your case). Go to "Edit" -> IPV4 setting Set "Method" to Manual and assign a static IP. Also to avoid IPV6 DHCP DISCOVER request, You can go to "Edit" -> IPV4 setting, and select link local address or select "Manual" and assign a static IP address. -------- regards, Rami Rosen http://ramirose.wix.com/ramirosen --------- On Sat, Oct 13, 2012 at 4:24 PM, Tom Horsley <horsley1953@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Sat, 13 Oct 2012 16:11:32 +0200 > Kevin Wilson wrote: > >> Is there a way to tell the Network Manager **not** to send DHCP >> requests in such a case > > I don't know if NetworkManager can ever be taught to be polite. > Every time I try to use NM to see if it has gotten better, > I run into something like this that it screws up, and I do > a "yum erase NetworkManager" and everything works perfectly > again. > > I run hostapd on my machine at work, and NM insisted on > butting in and screwing things up, so I removed it there > and have had no problems with it since. > -- > users mailing list > users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe or change subscription options: > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users > Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > Have a question?
