Yes, I know. I think *you* have failed to comprehend my responses, initial and subsequent. Read through them again, carefully. Tim: >> If the network is configured well, it's not random assignment.

I haven't mentioned Gnome network configuration, just configuring the network. Looking at network manager, it offers the opportunity to set network parameters, and tie them to a specific device. The defaults, though, takes everything out of your hands. It also isn't the only way to set up NAT. You can do iptable rules, for instance. I used to do that many years ago on dial-up, essentially doing the same as the original poster instead of a broadband device. It was certainly more obedient to my configurations. Whichever way things are done, my suggestion stands. If you don't like automatic random configuration, go fully manual. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.119.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 4 14:43:51 UTC 2024 x86_64 (yes, this is the output from uname for this PC when I posted) Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
