ubuntu network issues

Installed ubuntu and i'm having a few problems getting it to work so far i have tried.

Code:
sudo service network-manager stop
sudo rm /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state
sudo service network-manager start

no luck

sudo gedit /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf

changed managed=false => true. this got ifupdown oth0 to show in manager but it wouldn't connect.

tried manually adding a IP address and it connected, however i couldn't ping anything on my network. This lead my to believe that it was my router so i reset it back to default settings and still nothing (every other device on my network works fine)

I now don't know what to do, any ideas on what to try next?
 
I haven't used Ubuntu or the gnome NetworkManager in several years, but if you're using an ethernet connection, then you shouldn't need to use NetworkManager at all.

I remember NetworkManager doing funny things with the DNS servers to me before.

I know this isn't of much help, but why don't you try an alternative network applet? (I use Wicd myself), or just remove all of them and configure the network manually.

can't apt-get without internet :/ I've tried my router dns and google dns. no luck on that front.

I'm not sure why it won't connect to my router would power line adapters be an issues? network worked fine on xubuntu :/
