NetworkManager DSL Connection Issues

[Jean du Plessis]

Binary package hint: network-manager

Hi I configured my DSL connection (Iburst modem) via the NetworkManager applet by creating a DSL connection.
I can use NetworkManager to connect to the internet. However I can't access some sites, like Launchpad, it just keeps on trying to load the site. Other sites work fine.

I then setup the connection via pppoeconf utility and connected to the internet again (via sudo pon dsl-provider). This time all the sites I could not access the previous time worked flawlessly.

I am not sure what the difference is, but connecting via pon dsl-provider sorted out all my problems.

I am running Ubuntu 9.04
NetworkManager version = 0.7.1~rc4.1.cf199a964-0ubuntu2
