    Ethernet stops working when I use wireless.

    Hi, I have a laptop with Kubuntu 12.10 and every time that I connect to a wireless network my wired network stops working.

    If I disconnect the ethernet cable and connect to a wireless network the wireless works fine, however when I disconnect the wireless and try to connect using the ethernet cable the DHCP is able to find a IP but whenever I try to ping any IP or I get "ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted". The only way of getting the ethernet working again is turning off my wireless card and rebooting my laptop.

    the output of "lspci":

    Does anyone have any idea about what is going on?

    I have always had problems with the network manager and network manager plasmoid, but I don't use wireless. However I believe that using WICD instead of the network manager and associated plasmoid will solve your problem as I feel they work much better especially with wireless connections. Here is a link which will tell you a bit about wicd.

    It should be avalible via package manager or software center and they have a KDE version called WICD-KDE.

      Please recreate this situation. Then run these commands in a console window:

      Code:
      ifconfig
      
      route -nee
      Copy the results here so we can take a look.
