Hello Everyone,
on the first time boot I have this message:
20200903_052018.jpg
for being able to have a network connection, I select option 1:
20200903_052508.jpg
and finaly obtain an ip adress:
20200903_052524.jpg

But if I reboot my machine, those settings are lost. Is it a way to save it?

Many thanks

After you have configured the IP-address, try to log into the GUI, configure the address via GUI again. Maybe this way it stays persistent.

Next time you post pictures, please rotate them to correct orientation before posting them, thanks.

did I understand you right? I must configure a static IP adresse and then configure it again via GUI.

I would not say this is a must. IMHO the network config should survive a reboot if it is configured via the console.
But that is a thing I'd try.

I'm unable to make changes via the GUI. I can open everything, but the moment I begin typing a value for the MTU (which shows blank), the text become red. It doesn't matter what value I put in 68, 1500, or 9000. Any ideas? I can poke around and make changes in other sections - storage, share, users, etc. but not here. I am root.

@TMGREENE it is best if you start your own thread. Your problem is not related to the original posters problem. Also, you need to include your system configuration per forum requirements, or else it is not possible to offer help.

One comment, however: You don't have to set the MTU. Just leave it blank.
