I edited /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp0s25 as Jack Craig 
suggested and then I was able to make the changes in the NM GUI, dunno 
why it wouldn't work before. Perhaps a typo, I'm a lousy typist.

Anyway I have the configuration screen up on another computer so I'm off 
to fix things the way I want them.

Thanks to both of you for the help,

Bob
