Hi All, after installing Ubuntu Hardy / i386 today, I found a very strange phenomenon related to the NIC in my main PC which happens to be an "Attansic L1 Gigabit Ethernet" on an Asus P5K MoBo. Here's what happens: I installed from scratch, only reusing my /home partition. After installation, I find that all seems to be ok network wise - ifconfig says I have an ip address... - only I can't connect to any web server on the net. I can ping various addresses, but when I try to open http://www.google.com/ in Firefox, it kind of times out and tells me the connection was interrupted. This is true for all sites that I've tried so far. I have now replaced my router with another model I have set aside and after using this one, all works ok. Now one could assume that the router is faulty but all other PCs (about half a dozen at the moment) on my network can access the web alright using the other router. Even when I boot Windows XP on the mentioned PC, all is working - going back to Hardy, it's not. Meanwhile I've found that the same issue creeps up with Gutsy (Live-CD) as well so my assumption is it has something to do with the network driver that's being used (atl1 v2.0.7). Have any of you had a similar experience? And did you find a solution? Where could I start searching for a resolution? Any help will be appreciated.
