I had this problem on my 12.3 desktop. I shutdown for the night and the next morning after some updates, my network did not work. I found all the network setting were blank. (One of the updates must have wiped them out). I was ready to reinstall, but decided to you the update function on the DVD. It installed some different updates and most of my network setting. I then noticed my old eth0 was still there. (under network settings). I had just installed a new mother board and processor the day before. I copied the settings and deleted the old eth0. All is working now. Ah, worth trying out because now that I think about there WERE some updates done just before I switched off the laptop and went to bed. I'll try this out when I finish here.
BC Basil,
For the longest time my Dell laptop refused to talk to my wireless router after hibernate. (Opensuse 12.3)
Reboot fixed it and so did disconnect / reconnect via network manager.
My problem went away a couple months ago when by chance I replaced my wireless router.
After 13.1 upgrade all still works.

Thanks, Greg, but I now have a question, or rather 2: 1. are we supposed to be using the network manager or ifup? and 2. is the firewall supposed to be on or off? In 12.3 neither were used as far as I know - ie, there was no network manager and the firewall was off by default. But in 13.1 both are active if I remember what I saw last night (I haven't been back at the laptop since last night - I'm getting sick of the damn thing! :-( ) BC -- Using openSUSE 13.1, KDE 4.11.3 & kernel 3.12.1-1 on a system with- AMD FX 8-core 3.6/4.2GHz processor 16GB PC14900/1866MHz Quad Channel Corsair "Vengeance" RAM Gigabyte AMD3+ m/board; Gigabyte nVidia GTX660 OC 2GB DDR5 GPU -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
