I know that not from swapping cables but from trying other ends. Now it is too late to check although it is difficult to imagine why troubles would be so selective but maybe. That static IP assignments worked just fine did not help in a diagnosis. I realized eventually that over-the-air packets do not travel through this piece of hardware. Too late now. After a switch reset everything works as expected. Michal -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test

I wrote that in the original posting and this was making things more puzzling. Yesterday I applied over 1 Gig of updates to a rawhide installation using static settings. Still I think that I figured it out. It appears that a powered switch on my network decided to misbehave. After resetting it I started to see wired interfaces dynamically configured again. A mystery remains how my printer got its IP number. It is hanging from the same switch. Really weird ... An implicit information that I am the only one with such issue was of help. Thanks!
