    Network manager never automatically connects

    Hi Guys, I just moved over from Ubuntu 8.10 and now using Kubuntu 8.10 and I have one small issue.

    Whenever I start up the system the network manager never automatically connects to my network. I have to keep clicking in the little world icon and connecting manually.

    Is there anyway to make the network manager connect to my network automatically upon logging in?

    Many thanks

    Garry

        Right click the green ball, choose Edit Connections, window will appear, select your connection, click Edit connection, then Next a couple of times, till you get the Autoconnect checkbox, select it and click on Save and then on close.

        That should be it.
