Inline posting would be helpful First this is a password based connection ?? needs a user name and password and Auto eth0 does not do it so it *has* to be setup with the ADSL option. Yes this normally works but so far it has not and after a recent update network manager seems to even buggier the only thing is that it makes sure that Mobile broadband devices work well. So don't want to mess with WICD unless i know these also work there. ram -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
