I have tried to share my laptop Internet conection to a PC by configuring the Eth0 connection of my laptop with "Share with others" selected. The Eth0 connection of the PC is DHCP Automatic. It keeps connecting and disconnecting every 2 or 3 seconds. Am I doing something wrong?

Both computers are running Ubuntu.

  • Googling around found this issue is caused by a bug. The bug was fixed supposedly downloaded and installed in my system with update manager but I was having the issue even when Ubuntu 11.10 is up to date. So, I went to connection manager/etho config/IPV6 an set it up to IGNORE. Restart my laptop and problem solved. Nov 4, 2011 at 1:02

    @Bruno That is actually a comment, not an answer. What I meant was going down to the box below marked "Your Answer", entering it there, and clicking the "Post Your Answer" button.
