Hello,
You're correct, it's networking, not network.

I uninstalled avahi-autoipd. The situation has not changed.

SteveT, this is a desktop PC, so and I have a static IP set for it. The
PC does have an address assigned to it. But route -n gives nothing:

% sudo route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use
Iface
% 

Thanks,
David
