I checked a few threads and followed some steps but still having problem
I have a Cisco E2000 WiFi router, to which I have Mac wireless connected
From Mac, I visit 192.168.1.1
and I can see something like
Automatic Configuration by DHCP
IP address 192.168.1.1
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Device name SmallFlamingo
Start IP Address: 192.168.1.100
Maximum Number of Users: 50
IP Address Range: 192 .168.1.100 to 149
WiFi wireless and Mac no problem, can connect to internet
I just got a Ubuntu server (pre-configured some normal way for a specific task), which I connected to WiFi router via Ethernet cable
Some info regarding the server
uname -a

How can I connect the server to network? Thanks!
Alternatively, use
ip link
to display the link state of all NICs and see at a glance which one is connected. – Tilman Schmidt – 2018-05-13T18:51:56.830"You shouldn't be using an 8 year old OS that has been out of support (and security updates) for 3 years." It almost fits on [retrocomputing.se]. :) – Ron Maupin – 2018-05-13T18:54:17.627
@Eugen Rieck you're right. I plugged into the wrong card. The server OS is pre-configured. Thanks! – Tony Xu – 2018-05-13T21:45:30.240
