ethernet

I have just installed the Ubuntu 11.10 and facing challenges connecting to Internet using Ethernet connection.

Below is the configuration details:

IP address: 172.19.40.16
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 172.19.40.1

When I run the command ifconfig I don't find the IP address in inet addr: Even when I try to change the Network device to "Ethernet" in Network tools, the changes are not getting saved.

Please help. Let me know if you want further information.
