I have to deal with this issue and it is a major pain in the @*&[EMAIL 
PROTECTED] I
simply cannot believe that such a major issue has made it to the final
release of Feisty. Yes, I know, computer geeks nowadays don't know what
to do with a modem, but there are still a lot of areas where high-speed
is not an option or for people like me who spend only a limited amount
of time in areas that require dialup, or for people who are not willing
to spend 40$ a month to check their email.  Ubuntu seems to assume that
everybody in the world is connected through DHCP. On a given day, I can
use DHCP, a static ip, a dialup connection and a wireless connection.
Both network-admin and network-manager are just not adaptable enough for
this and their is completely useless for dialup users. This, added to
the fact that my wireless card is unsupported, makes my Ubuntu
experience that much less enjoyable. It really frustrates me to have to
boot to windows every time I need to go on the internet.

Just my two bits,
