This is a known issue, it's not currently possible to connect to a PPPoE connection over wireless.
There are workarounds though: you can use wired to connect, say, for a first connection, than install and use pppoeconf, pon and poff to control PPPoE connections manually. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE for all the details on how to do this. ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #446338 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=446338 ** Also affects: network-manager-applet (Fedora) via https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=446338 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Changed in: network-manager-applet (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: network-manager-applet (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/686782 Title: No way to connect Wireless/PPPOE -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
