==How to find out Your connection IP adress?==
Your IP address is something you probably rarely think about, but it's vitally important to your online lifestyle. Without an IP address, you wouldn't be able to get today's weather, check the latest news or look at videos online. Why? Because without your IP address, websites like whatismyipaddress.com, CNN or ESPN wouldn't know where to send the information you asked for. They wouldn't be able to get it to YOUR computer.<br>

Before you blame Ubuntu, try connecting to the Internet on other devices. If they're experiencing the same problem, it isn’t with Ubuntu—it’s with something else. For example, you may need to reboot your router, modem, or both. It’s always worth checking these fundamentals before delving into further troubleshooting.<br/>

=Turn off Bluetooth by default in Ubuntu 14.04=
==Turn off Bluetooth by default in Ubuntu 14.04==
Bluetooth is always on at each boot in Ubuntu laptops. This is not good, from both power saving and security purpose. Moreover, we hardly use Bluetooth, so why should have Bluetooth enabled by default? While one can turn off Bluetooth in one click in Ubuntu, doing it in each session is a repetitive and frustrating task. Simpler solution is to deactivate Bluetooth at start up in Ubuntu.
