Raw message 

Hi, on the begging many thx for great hotspot system, I use with 4 
different places and never had problems until today



# hardware used
Intel Next Unit Of Computing (mini pc) with usb network card

# Ubuntu installation process
went as usual, with small difference, it didn't show the screen where you 
choice network card. 

# after installation

"ifconfig" command shows em1 and lo but no usb lan card interface, where 
em1 is connected to outside world and getting ip over dhcp.

"ifconfig -a" shows usb card as eth0 (so card is visible and if i set it up 
manually it works when connected to internet)

as i need manual ip ive changed it to:

"cat /etc/networks/interfaces"
--------------------------------
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto em1
iface em1 inet static
address 192.168.7.100
network 192.168.7.0
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.7.255
gateway 192.168.7.1
dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 4.2.2.2
--------------------------------

#grase installation - no problems !!

wget 
http://packages.grasehotspot.org/pool/main/g/grase-repo/grase-repo_1.5_all.deb

sudo dpkg -i grase-repo_1.4_all.deb

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install grase-www-portal grase-conf-freeradius 
grase-conf-squid3 grase-conf-openvpn

# after grase installation

ifconfig shows now: em1 lo and tun0 (10.64.63.48) but no eth0


i know its something stiupid with configuration, but i missing it, and this 
is 3rd day i am working on it an still no changes :| so i hope someone 
knows what i am missing, if you need some other setting please let me know 

many thanks
