Posting here in hopes of getting this bumped to a higher priority; not
sure it's the same bug but the title is exactly acurate:

I am running Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn)
to reproduce:

- open network-admin
- (optional, I think) change some settings (for example, I've specified an 
alternate DNS server)
- click the save button next to the "Location" drop down menu; type a name and 
click 'Save"
- reboot

When you open network manager again, the location will be blank, and the
settings will have gone back to defaults (from dhcp I suspect).
Choosing the saved location does change the settings as expected, but
this is a hassle to have to do every time the computer is booted.

Alternately, instead of rebooting, you can close network-admin and just
run 'sudo dhclient' and it will clear the Location.

Expected behavior would be that one could choose a default location, or
the last used location and settings would be used.
