After attempting to get the settings correct in KDE and losing the internet again i went back into Gnome and found the same error of Automatic proxy problem kept flashing up. This never happened before in Gnome. I went back to KDE and tried to undo the error. Upon returning to Gnome I had lost Network Connections altogether. I had tried to recover it but without success. Due to my small amount of knowledge on how to system repair I chose to reinstall Ubuntu. I now have internet using Gnome only and it has caused me an icon with a red exclamation mark when i go to start it. It cannot see the device. I return to Network Connections and reapply the settings then the red exclamation mark disappears and i have now two usb devices to access the net. i will go through an uninstall of the devices from network connections then rebout and let Ubuntu discover the device and start with new settings. The same issue happened when i first installed Ubuntu. I believe it will come good after that. Apologies for taking so much of your time. Thanks.
