Hi! Since Firefox 3 and Network Manager make this a very annoying issue I like to ask how NetConf will be going to handle on- and offline detection[1] [2][3]. Will it handle it at all? How does it handle connection that it doesn't manage then?
I think the approach that Network Manager currently takes is not going to work out well. It just reports offline when all of the connections it handles is offline. Regardless of whether the complete network is actually really offline.
