<title>Manually set network settings</title>
<p>If your network doesn’t automatically assign network settings to your
computer, you may have to manually enter the settings yourself. This topic
assumes that you already know the correct settings to use. If not, you may
need to ask your network administrator or look at the settings of your router
or network switch.</p>

</item>
<item>

</item>
<item>
<p>In the left pane, select the network connection that you want to set
up manually. If you plug in to the network with a cable, click
<gui>Network</gui>. Otherwise click <gui>Wi-Fi</gui>.</p>
<p>Make sure that your wireless card is turned on or a network cable is
plugged in.</p>
</item>
