Hi,
I recently installed the latest version of Ubuntu onto a 10 year old laptop and it has given it a new lease of life. I am very pleased with it except for one irritating issue. I connected a portable hard drive and a USB stick and transferred some files from the HD to the stick. I unmounted both and removed them. Since then I keep getting the Activation Network connection error message, I can only assume it is trying to connect to either the HD or the USB stick and as neither of them are connected, hence the message. My internet connection is fine and has no issues . Any help would be gratefully received.
Thanks in advance.
 


What's the exact error message?

Since your internet connection is fine it could be a bug:-

Here's Fixing A Bug In Ubuntu:
 
Go to wired settings and disable connect automtically. its not a bug its just a harmless yet annoying setting
 
Removing gnome-control-center actually fixed my problem. As soon as I re-installed it my network started disconnecting again. Removed it once again, problem was solved.
 
Jokerman,
You may want to try disabling the 'connect automatically' that could put an end to that pecky message.
