No, my addon works in firefox 3.0 for sure :-). I have tested it and

Just install the Firefox extension I developed and you will never see
the "Offline Mode" problem again. Email me if you have any problems
with this XPI. Enjoy...
---^ I second Jonathan Blow's idea.. having apps behave differently if
they think they are online or not is just not "UNIXey". IMHO, they
should do what they are told, and just find out they have "no route to
host" if there in fact isn't one.

What exactly is the point of Offline Mode in the first place? Is it
worth all the trouble it is causing?
Maybe we should file "Existence of Offline Mode" as a bug.

Another solution might be to write a firefox addon to always disable
offline mode at startup. Notice that firefox already does this when
you are asked if you would like to upgrade to a new addon revision.
It is quite ridiculous that we must resort to fixing this issue via a
custom firefox addon.
I have a solution that I think is as near perfect as it gets. It is very
simple.
The problem: I need NetworkManager for connecting my laptop to wifi and
ethernet. However, it messes me up when I am on PPP.
The solution: kill Network Manager before running pppd and revive it
after, e.g.:
#!/bin/s
I can also confirm this problem with Firefox 3. I had to downgrade my
uncle's computer to Firefox 2. He uses dialup and never had any problem
before. Firefox 3 always starting offline was really confusing him.
I hope this gets fixed soon. It is really tough for folks who have to
use a modem anyway

I'm glad to see that ~network-manager PPA was updated.
At the time I've added dalbers' ppa to my sources.list, ~network-manager PPA
was stuck at svn20080121.
Hope you'll keep it updated in the future. Thanks.

I also want to point out that what's in config files should be
irrelevant. Why is Firefox checking network config files? It should
just check the actual network.

Nope.. just one session. Without my kludge, It's just like what Daniel Newman

I've found a kludgy "fix" for this (that doesn't just involve
removing nm, since it's wireless and wired handling are nice). In my
case, I have a Inspiron 2200 with wifi set via ndiswrapper (which works
fine) and an aircard (Verizon PC5740) which worked except for the
"Offline mode" problem.
I installed Wicd as mentioned earlier in this report by PearZoo which
automatically removed network manager and its gnome front-end... and now
all the apps are working fine
