So, first enable nm and configure your interface (DSL, I assume): Right click panel nm icon, select Edit Connections ... Select DSL, select interface, Edit... check off Automatically ... select tab IPv4 Settings Method: Automatic (DHCP) check off Require IPv4... leave Routes... empty and unchecked check off Available to all users select tab IPv6 Settings Method: Ignore click Apply to finish and best would be to reboot and back to your desktop (with nm). At this point you should see some processes and data to verify and work with: note: this is my machine. # ps aux |grep -i dhc root 2761 0.0 0.1 8708 3408 ?
