i'm curious to hear if this actually works.
also strange that until today there is no mention of this anywhere in NM, and pppoeconf has a beautiful intelligent wizard, while NM offers pages of administrator-level information, where i only want to use the default settings offered by the pppoeconf wizard in more than 99% of the cases.
