Told them as in created a bugzilla ? If you did and nobody replied, that's a
pity but you did your bit anyways. Could you dig out the BZ number ?

What do you mean by hard coded ? Did you add it to the routes in the GUI
tool (ie: nm-applet->right click->edit connections->select
connection->edit->ipv4 settings->route) ?
no - I did not
Ok. so in what way is it hard coded then ?

Again, this also indicates that the default gateway is being 'set' or
'reset' from someplace outside of NM (and when it fails -- which it would
if the gateways doesn't belong to the network you are setting it for --
you end up with an empty default gateway).
default gateway is not being set.
Yes, sorry for the confusion. That's what I meant (empty == not being set).
Anyways, could you also paste the contents of
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 ? and paste (or pastebin) the log
messages from /var/log/messages when you switch a connection using NetworkManager ?
cheers,
- steve
