Bug Description

Binary package hint: network-manager

Ubuntu 8.10

here is my configuration
PC1 :
eth1 IP 192.168.1.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1

DSL Modem:
IP 192.168.1.1

sometimes, when my DSL access is off, i need to connect to the internet via a 56k connection. I didn't find how to configure it in NetworkManager, so i use Gnome-PPP

when the ppp connection is up, access to the internet is impossible because default route is still 192.168.1.1

the default route have to be the ppp0 interface.

I need to unplug the ethernet cable from eth1 card to make it work

as a workaround, i made this script

it kills the default route, launch gnome-ppp and when gnomme-ppp closes then it adds the default route again

#!/bin/sh

sudo route del default

gnome-ppp

sudo route add default gw 192.168.1.1
