Might be ifconfig is enough...

Please open a Terminal from the menu Applications->Accessories->Terminal and type:

ifconfig -a

hope this helps

you can open a terminal (Applications | Accessories | Terminal ) and write ifconfig, it will list all your network information. Also you can check the network manager applet (in Ubuntu it can be found beside the clock in the top right) by right clicking on it and choose "Connection Information"
