Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-manager
This does not always happen, but it happens MOST of the time, and when it starts happening it never stops happening:
If I use NM to connect to my wireless broadband, it starts pppd and pppd actually connects and gets IP.
However, I see this in /var/log/syslog. After that the connection is terminated.
Any idea?

What is in /etc/dbus- 1/system. d/nm-dhcp- client. conf ?
Did you install NM 0.7 from some PPA at some point?
