@Emmanuel Touzery, @Nicolai_J. You are completely wrong on your point. But, as users, you might not know, and it's OK. You might also be surprised to know that one network card can have several IP addresses, and it is pretty well reasonable and sane setup for some networks.
What I am afraid of is that developers of NetworkManager think like you (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/290639/comments/6) It would be very disturbing if they think we ask for some rare and unusual thing just out of curiosity. It must be understood that this is a *real* bug, it makes a lot of trouble for many people here, just not everyone is writing about this. If you only knew how mad we become working this bug around on hybrid modems with our dumb monopolist providers requiring bridge-mode and ceasing technical support otherwise! Read this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/290639/comments/18 I'd like to thank Yigit Güneli for such clear explanation. @dobee: Yes, there must be option to turn off or turn on ethN connections, independently. And there must be an option to turn on or turn off PPP connections, also independently on any other connections, whether PPP or Ethernet ones. That would be right. -- [MASTER] pppd timeout when trying to establish a DSL connection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/432205 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
