[Bug 989380] [NEW] Ubiquity Does Not Recognize an Internet Re-connection

[Lexen]

Public bug reported:

Hello everyone and thanks for reading my bug!

It's a pretty simple one.  I accidentally had my ethernet cable
unplugged when the Ubuntu 12.04 liveCD was loading up, so when the
installer ran, it said that I did not have an internet connection and
could not install updates with the install.  I realized my mistake and
plugged it back in.  Ubuntu notified me that I was now connected to the
internet, but the installed still didn't recognize it.  I went back a
page, then forward, but to no avail.  I restarted the computer with the
liveCD in and the ethernet cable plugged in and everything worked out
great from there.  A small problem, but someone shouldn't have to
restart their computer just because they have the cable unhooked at the
start of the install.

Thanks again reading my bug and helping to make the best OS on earth a
little better!
