Bug Description
This applies to nm-applet 0.6.6 running on Hardy alpha.
I have no problem setting a static IP address for my wired network using nm-applet.
However, whenever I restart the computer, nm-applet still has the correct IP address that I set, but my network connection no longer works. If I change the IP address in nm-applet to a different IP address and click "OK", the network connection now works fine. I can switch back to the original IP address at that point using nm-applet, and it works fine again.
