Public bug reported:
As the summary says, I cannot connect to the internet when I use
"Automatic (DHCP)" configuration in IPv4 settings within the network
manager. But, when I use "Automatic (DHCP) addresses only" and type in
my DNS addresses manually, I can browse the internet at full speed.
This problem did not occur in jaunty, and I suspect it is because the
Broadcom driver or the Network manager Applet. What's interesting is
that when I connect to the internet using my Windows Mobile device (via
RNDIS), I don't need to make any changes to the settings and I always
able to browse the net normally.
This problem not only prevents me from browsing using firefox, but the
other apps and commands, such as ping, Update Manager, etc don't work.
They just stalled as if they are waiting for the server's reply forever
(speed: 0 KB/s, Connecting... but not Transferring Data)
This problem occurs in both Karmic and Lucid Beta 1 (currently using
lucid beta 1) but not in windows or any ubuntu versions before karmic
(including jaunty)
Driver used : Broadcom STA driver from "Hardware Drivers" applet
WLAN card : Broadcom 54g wireless LAN
Suspected packages : Broadcom STA driver packages (don't know which one
to put) and/or GNOME network-manager
Please see my video for a live preview
