Current network setting page:

VPN not set up, Network Proxy off

I use pppoe connection and have recently switched to Ubuntu, I am having a hard time setting up the pppoe connection. Isn't there suppose to be a Wired + on the top right?

Wireless works perfectly.

    $ sudo lshw -c network

  • Is the ethernet cable connected, and also connected to a switch/hub/router/modem? Is there a blinking LED light next to the ethernet connection on your (desktop) computer? Edit your question (and use the {} code formatting option) and show me the output of **sudo lshw -c network** and **dkms status**. Report back to @heynnema. – heynnema Sep 05 '18 at 20:48
  • @heynnema edited. and on etc/NetworkManager.conf it says etc/NetworkManager does not exist – Ayon Azad Sep 06 '18 at 08:24
  • I didn't ask about NetworkManager.conf, but it's located in **/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf**. You didn't answer my questions about your ethernet wiring. Edit your question with **lsmod | grep -i r81** and **ls -al /etc/modprobe.d** and **more /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf** and **more /etc/network/interfaces** and report back to @heynnema. – heynnema Sep 06 '18 at 15:19
  • Your wired network connection seems fine. Did you try to [create a DSL connection](/a/1072407/175814) (as in my answer to the linked question)? Did it work? If not, what went wrong or counter to your expectations? Were there any error messages? Could you please [edit] your question to include the output of the terminal command `LC_MESSAGES=POSIX nmcli dev show`? Thanks. – David Foerster Sep 07 '18 at 07:36

Looks like you have to install the pppoe package first, then you need to run some commands via CLI to make it work.

Basically, you have to create a new entry on NetworkManager with the nmcli utility.

See the answer to this question for the procedure (it's for 17.04 but should work on 18.04 too).
