Configure ethernet bridge using Connection Editor GUI

[Guest]

Hi All,

Took the plunge and installed 16.04 on my PC yesterday.

Has anyone had any success using the Connection Editor GUI to configure an ethernet bridge?

Tried : right clicked network icon in systems tray > Configure Network Connections to launch GUI > +Add > Bridge > +Add > Ethernet and basically the next window just remains unresponsive.

Cheers!

I haven't installed 16.04 yet but it doesn't work for me through network manager in 15.04 or 15.10. I was hoping they fixed it for the LTS release but I guess not yet.

Sorry for the late reply, I just followed your settings and it works for me.

Hi There!

Thanks for your responses.

I'd resorted to using nmtui commandline utility instead to get my bridge network connection up and running.
Not sure why but the GUI doesn't work for me even after regular updates.

Cheers and thanks again!
