But it's probably NetworkManager itself that does this check, it does should not be done in nm-applet.<br /><br />Well, I need to know from users of DSL connection what they think should be improved in Plasma NM. Not requiring to deactivate the auto-connect on the ethernet interface is one thing, what else? I also need to test the configuration options in the dialog to see if they really work, for example the "Cloned MAC address" and IPv6 options (if possible).<br /><br />Also check if it possible to share the DSL connection through another ethernet card and/or wifi. That kind of thing.Lamarquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02689491144609928238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4950896403024987968.post-73842362866841020662012-02-06T13:09:33.619-02:002012-02-06T13:09:33.619-02:00Maybe this is because Gnome's nm-applet doesn&...Maybe this is because Gnome's nm-applet doesn't allow you to have more than one active device, and thus implicitly deactivates the wired connection.<br /><br />OTOH, my current ISP uses ADSL, so feel free to direct any testing requests to my e-mail address before I move to a different ISP.Alexander E.
