Title:
  NM can't connect via ADSL; pppoeconf and pon can -- AVM IAD 5130

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: network-manager

  System: Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala
  Hardware: AVM IAD 5130 [1]
  Provider: Alice (Germany)

  I expected to configure an internet dialup connection to my DSL through AVM 
IAD 5130 with the help of Network Manager.
  Instead, Network Manager couldn't create a working dial-up connection through 
the desired device.

  Further Details:
  IAD 5130 is a DSL modem / router.
  If IAD 5130 is used as a modem, Network Manager is unable to establish an 
internet connection.

  Workaround:
  pppoeconf easily achieves the desired dialup connection, after leaving 
everything in the wizard on default.
  unfortunately, as we already know from Bug 404780, the system-wide 
configuration changes brought by completing the pppoeconf wizard break Network 
Manager, so that it no longer manages network devices.
  This has been difficult for many people using modems.
