This looks like either a problem with network-manager, or a problem with your network configuration / hardware. Have you modified /etc/network/interfaces?

[wim glenn (wim-glenn-w)]

I have not modified the file. The contents are:

# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
