Ah .. That damn Network Configurator. It seems to be OK for configuring
your network but if you want to do things like have auto redial on or to
permanently change your router/gateway then you are best editing the
files directly in /etc/sysconfig. I had that problem but I don't after
editing the files directly. Don't ask me why.
