I have the same problem, also Feisty. After  network settings are change
through "Manual Configuration" the nm-applet displays the disconnect and
reconnect to the network. Since DHCP related daemons won't be killed
during reconfiguration, the IP address is obtained from the DHCP server.
ifdown <IF>; if <IF> didn't help. Reboot makes the static configuration
including DNS, Gateway, ... work. Seems like some simliar bugs are
already opened. I my opinion many it's a serious problem for all
consultants and service engineers working at different
customers/locations with different lots of different network
environments.
