\marginnote{An Internet Protocol (\acronym{IP}) address is a numerical label assigned to devices on a computer network. It is the equivalent of phone numbers for your house and allows your computer to be uniquely identified so you can access the internet and share files with others.}

You should see a window showing details about your connection. If your \acronym{IP} address is displayed as 0.0.0.0 or starts with 169.254, then your computer was not successfully provided with an address through \acronym{DHCP}. If it shows another address, it is most likely that your connection was automatically configured correctly. To test out your Internet connection, you may want to open the \application{Firefox} web browser to try loading a web page. More information on using Firefox can be found later in this chapter.

To enable networking, right-click on the NetworkManager applet and select \button{Enable Networking} from the popup menu.}

If you are still not online after following these steps, you may need to try setting up your Internet configuration manually, using a static \acronym{IP} address.

If your network does not support \acronym{DHCP}, then you need to know a few items of information before you can get online.

An {\bfseries\acronym{IP} address} is a unique address used for identifying your computer on the Internet. When connecting through \acronym{DHCP} this is likely to change at times, however, if your \acronym{ISP} has provided you with a static address then it will not. An \acronym{IP} address is always given in the form of four numbers separated by decimal points, for example, 192.168.0.2.

The {\bfseries network mask} tells your computer how large the network is that it belongs to. It takes the same form as an \acronym{IP} address, but is usually something like 255.255.255.0

The {\bfseries gateway} is the \acronym{IP} address at your \acronym{ISP}'s end. It helps your computer connect or ``talk'' with their network, which acts as a ``gateway'' between your computer and the Internet.

{\bfseries\acronym{DNS} servers} are one or more \acronym{IP} addresses of ``Domain Name System'' servers. These servers convert standard web addresses (like \url{http://www.ubuntu.com}) into \acronym{IP} addresses such as 91.189.94.156. This step allows your computer to ``find'' the correct web site when you type in the web address you wish to visit. A minimum of one \acronym{DNS} server is required, and any additional ones are used in case the first one fails.
