Awesome. I just recently graduated from grad school at U-M, myself.

Well, I live in the area (West Side Ann Arbor), but lets see if we can't
figure this out on the mailing list before I bike up to NW4.

What version of Ubuntu are you running?
What have you tried doing to connect to the DSL connection?
What error messages do you get when you try to connect?
Are you plugged into the router or trying to connect wirelessly?

Best,

Greg

A few more questions:
- Who is your ISP?
- What modem are you using?

The log that shows the most about what NetworkManager is doing is
/var/log/daemon.log.

You can view it in realtime in a console with "tail -f
/var/log/daemon.log" while you try to connect and you may get more info.
