If you are having issues connecting to your network or the Internet, the first thing you need to do is locate the model of the network device you are using. To do so, unfortunately you will have to use the command line at this time. To get to the command line in Kubuntu, press <keycombo><keycap>Alt</keycap><keycap>Space</keycap></keycombo>. This will open up a pop-up called <application>Katapult</application>. Enter the word <userinput>konsole</userinput> and press <keycap>Enter</keycap>. You will notice that once <application>Konsole</application> opens, you will see something similar to <prompt>username@hostname:~$</prompt>. Here you will type <userinput>lspci</userinput> and press <keycap>Enter</keycap>. Locate your network hardware information, you will need this for the upcoming sections, especially for wireless cards.

No matter the connection you are using, the network settings will usually be configured the same. Most users are probably familiar with Windows networking and seeing terms such as <acronym>IP</acronym> address, gateway address, netmask address, and <acronym>DNS</acronym> addresses. They are still the same in Kubuntu however there are two extra settings that are common with Linux systems, network address and broadcast address however these extra settings are not necessary for basic home networking and connecting to the Internet.

An <acronym>IP</acronym> address is a unique identifier, commonly known as the computer's address, that is used in communicating between other computers on a network and the Internet. There are two versions of <acronym>IP</acronym> addressing, <acronym>IPv4</acronym> which is the most widely used and the oldest, and <acronym>IPv6</acronym> which is newer. <acronym>IPv6</acronym> was created to cure the fact the world was running out of <acronym>IP</acronym> addresses.
