I'm struggling with this.  It worked perfectly for getting the
temporary ip address, but I'm having great difficulty persuading it to
use the original eth0 address.

MCC says that eth0 is correctly configured and active.  The notifier
popup says it is active.  ifconfig says that the temp configuration is
active, and I can't ping other machines on the LAN without using wireless.

Any ideas?
