Please can we add the ability to make dsl (pppoe) connections over wi- fi using the network manager. You can do it over wired but not over wifi.

I have PPPoE over my Wireless Network, and I should always use command line (pppoeconf,pon,poff) to make the connection. However, when I'm connecting to the network using an Ethernet cable, they will show up and I can use them without any problem. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS Release: 10.04 $ dpkg -s network-manager Package: network-manager Architecture: i386 Version: 0.8-0ubuntu3 $ dpkg -s network-manager-gnome Package: network-manager-gnome Architecture: i386 Version: 0.8-0ubuntu3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/613679/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
