I was just setting up 3G broadband dial-up using the following setup: - Tether from Intrepid to mobilephone via bluetooth. - Mobile phone serve as dial-up modem. - Using wvdial and gnome-ppp.
Once connection is established, I got a ppp0 entry from ifconfig. However, Firefox still starts in offline mode. nm-applet shows an icon wihth exclamation mark, indicating it is not aware of the ppp connection. The internet connection itself is working, once I manually set Firefox to online mode. I have the Network Manager updated to: 0.7~~svn20081015t224738-0ubuntu1 -- [MASTER] [WORKAROUND] "Offline Mode" feature fails to detect proper online state for networks that are managed outside of network manager. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/191889 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
