I have one Android phone which has USB hotspot feature (tethering).

Steps that reproduce the problem:




  1. I connect phone to Ubuntu.

  2. Make changes to USB Ethernet adapter in Settings => Network, like changing DNS servers or disabling IPv6 or anything else.

  3. Reboot PC.

  4. Look at new USB Ethernet adapter is in the list!

  5. Make changes again, to a new adapter this time. (Wired connection 2)

  6. Reboot PC.

  7. Look at new USB Ethernet adapter is in the list!

  8. Make changes again, to a new adapter this time. (Wired connection 3)

  9. Reboot PC.

  10. Look at new USB Ethernet adapter is in the list!

  11. Make changes again, to a new adapter this time. (Wired connection 4)

  12. Reboot PC.

  13. Look at new USB Ethernet adapter is in the list!

  14. Make changes again, to a new adapter this time. (Wired connection 5)


How to avoid this replication?

A garbage list right in the Settings control panel.



P.S. all these wired connections have the same MAC address.

  • Instead of editing the new connection each time can you just connect to one you configured the first time?

  • Ryan J. Yoder, I tried, but all previous connections are unavailable to connect to.
