NM has very limited support for dial up connection . On Fedora NM displays a connect via Modem option atleast. This needs a network-script , in conjunction with wvdial , and ppp settings ( these are created by system-config-network on F7 ) # file : /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-Airtel # Please read /usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysconfig.txt # for the documentation of these parameters.
