           Summary: static IP configuration not possible when using wireless
                    networks
           Product: knetworkmanager
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: wstephenson kde org
        ReportedBy: sjorsgielen gmail com


Version:           0.1 (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
Compiler:          gcc 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4) 
OS:                Linux

I'm using knetworkmanager to connect me to my wireless WPA-protected wireless network. The connecting works fine; yet, when it connects, it uses DHCP to assign me an address on the network. I could not find any way of deactivating this and letting me choose my own address.

How to reproduce: Connect to a wireless network with a DHCP server running. Run `ifconfig`.
Expected behaviour: When configuring wireless network, give options for DHCP or static configuration. When connecting, read these options and apply.
