Alexander, I thought William did a very good job of providing an
extremely comprehensive list as you asked. With the information
provided in this bug report thus far can this issue move forward? The
general consensus seems to be that the new functionality in 0.7 (i.e.
Mobile Broadband and DSL)
I'd be interesting in knowing what, if anything, is planned regarding

Hardy, but the new network manager is the one and only step backwards.

Due to this and many other bugs in NM 0.7, it seems that we have Regression
Potential here, but that would be a problem for those who require 0.7 because
they require some of the new features such as Wireless Broadband and DSL. I'm
stumped, because it just seems that we've moved ahead to 0.7
@Mr. Sack: You wrote i am still missing an explicit list of options
that are missing here. That list can be created by comparing 0.6.5 to
0.7 and enumerating all options which appear in 0.6.5 but do not appear
in 0.7. Below is a list of all of the options in 0.6.5's Dialog window
labeled Edit VPN
I have dynamic IP-addresses from PPTP-server, even when I choose 'manual' for
IPv4 settings and enter IP-address by hands.
How can I set gateway for manual route?
And another one, I can setup it connection from windows xp, it works and
it sets correct route table, but nm-0.7 gets wrong
I also agree that MTU and debug options are badly needed. It is also a
regression form version 0.6.5 in Hardy since both options where
available there.

As I mentioned above, we can already disable the VPN DNS servers, by choosing
the 'addresses only' method.
That leaves the MTU setting and the debug option.

Well, as to summarize the essential missing options from this thread:
- UI to set a custom MTU and
- UI to disable the use of VPN DNS servers.
As mentioned in comment 6, disabling the default gateway would not
explicitly be needed as this can be achieved by entering specific
routes.

I've installed the PPA version of network manager and I still don't have

Where are these options located?

Mozg,
Both of those options are present, but they are not obvious.
As we have been discussing, if you create a specific route definition, it
implies nodefaultroute.
The second is implemented by the Method pull-down. If you choose Automatic
(VPN) addresses only, it will not pick up the DNS
Andrei,
I saw somewhere that the system will only use the first three DNS
entries even if more are defined. So why don't you try manually setting
3 dns entries in your VPN configuration. And also check the option to
ignore the provider settings. Just an idea.

It is true that the routing table could be better organised. The Prefix
is the number of bits in the subnet prefix. E.g., for subnet
192.168.20.0/24, the prefix is 24.
In this example, you would populate the first two columns of the table
with 192.168.20.0 and 24, leaving the last two

I discovered that, if you add specific routes to the VPN definition, it

So, click Routes and add the VPN's subnet information to the table.
You only need to fill in the IP and prefix.
