i have kubuntu 7.04 / Aristo Laptop with realtek RT2500 wlan card

on my linksys router i have static DHCP assigment for my wifi mac

here is my /etc/network/interfaces file:

iface lo inet loopback
address 127.0.0.1
netmask 255.0.0.0

#iface eth0 inet static
#address 192.168.1.12
#netmask 255.255.255.0
#gateway 192.168.1.1

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

auto eth2

auto ath0

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp

#iface ra0 inet dhcp

Try commenting out the entries for ath0/wlan0 and let kdenetworkmanager manage those interfaces. There is a new version out today that shoud work in a number of situations where the previous versions didn't.
