Alexander, I thought William did a very good job of providing an extremely comprehensive list as you asked. With the information provided in this bug report thus far can this issue move forward? The general consensus seems to be that the new functionality in 0.7 (i.e. Mobile Broadband and DSL)

Brian. I wonder if you could post an example of the route you have used. I know what the subnet is, not sure at all what a prefix is. -- intrepid network-manager-pptp does not have essential options https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/278309 You received this bug notification because you are a

For me the essential options are: 1. being able to specify the MTU for the ppp0 connection - i can't keep it stable with the default. 2. Being able to restrict traffic that uses the VPN - this may be possible now with the routing table but is very cryptic as to how it can be achieved. I can

Ahh...thanks Brian, it is a different way of specifying the subnet mask. I have now tried your suggestion and done some testing with my VPN. With a routing entry I can get HTTP traffic to be routed through the default gateway. As tested by external IP address checkers correctly reporting my (and

Further to my earlier post. I will try Brian's suggestion. Interestingly, I can vastly improve the stability of the vpn connection by reducing the MTU of ppp0 to 1400 (what i beleive is the MS standard for the PPTP VPN protocol). This currently has to be done after connection to the VPN in a

I agree. VPN under Hardy worked brilliantly!! Now, under Intrepid I can't control traffic specific to the VPN connection and my VPN breaks often. Rubbish!!! I'm in the crazy situation that I'm using a windows VM to use my office VPN connection. (I know I could use Hardy as VM, but not got
