On my network, through the DHCP on my router I assign the MAC address of my desktop to have a static IP, but assigned through the DHCP. My Desktop is the only device on my network that I want to have a static address. On Windows 10 when I keep the network setting to automatically obtain the network IP, gateway, and DNS and it works perfectly.
But when I boot into Linux on the same PC it didn't automatically obtain the proper settings through DHCP, I had to manually put in the IP address, Gateway and the DNS.
Why exactly did Windows 10 work as it should, but the Linux choked on it and made me set it manually?
