It asks for the IP information during the install and then NetworkManager sets up the connection data and it's permanent. Did I really say that, NetworkManager actually works ;-) Must say a big thank you to all the NetworkManager folks for ironing out the bugs. It's actually a useful bit of software now and I can take my laptops from work to home and it recognises the different networks with the minimun of fuss, Well done.
