There's no way to setup DNS info for static IP configuration, which leads to broken name resolution:

fgimenez@localhost:~$ cat /etc/netplan/00-snapd-config.yaml
# This is the network config written by 'console-conf'
network:
  ethernets:
    enxb827ebd3f20f:
      addresses: [192.168.0.200/24]
  version: 2
fgimenez@localhost:~$ ping www.ubuntu.com
ping: unknown host www.ubuntu.com
fgimenez@localhost:~$ cat /etc/resolv.conf

Selecting DHCP config from console-conf all works fine:

fgimenez@localhost:~$ cat /etc/netplan/00-snapd-config.yaml
# This is the network config written by 'console-conf'
network:
  ethernets:
    enxb827ebd3f20f:
