Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

This is not a bug report, but a request of improvement.

I have a DSL pppoe connection, through a wifi modem. At the moment, I
have to use network-manager in order to connect to wifi, and then "sudo
pon dsl-provider" for DSL. I cannot see a way, inside network manager,
to use a DSL connection through a wifi modem.

This is quite annoying, because pppoeconf and network manager do not
work very well together, as I wrote here:

manager/+bug/571570?comments=all

Here is another possibly related bug:
