Hi! Try paste this one (for wireless router and lan internet works in 100%) in terminal window (as sudo or su i think):

#ifconfig eth0 YOUR-IP netmask YOUR-NETMASK
#ifconfig eth0 up
#route add default gw YOUR-GW
#touch /etc/resolv.conf
#echo "nameserver YOUR-DNS" >> /etc/resolv.conf

I hope that this configuration will work in Ubuntu (6.06 and 6.10). Btw. Sorry for my english but i'm from other country. Let the power be with You! :)

Can you help with this problem?
