I think we all agreed that using the MCC for your connection was a VERY
BAD idea (gets really flaky).

BEST bet is to make direct modifications to the network scripts located
in the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts directory - and to make sure that
your /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf are setup properly...

Once you've modified those scripts, do a:

service network restart

...and all should be well...
