Incidentally, when I select automatic DHCP addresses only in the manage connection window wireless-tap, and I insert opendns ip-addresser, dns does not work either. The ip-addresses do not turn up in /etc/resolv.conf.

This and a number of other bugs in (kde) networkmanager are so serious for everyday practical use. I know at least 5-6 programmers who just laugh of nm because it so hopelessly buggy. They won't ever bother about writing bug reports because this is too far out. They just use other programs such as wicd. As I have written in another bug-report, it doesn't work for HUAWEI modem either. But, since I made a simple script for wvdial, it works EVERY time. Calling the importance of these bugs "low" is just out of proportions. It is so critical that even clever programmers avoid using the program on their laptops.

I hope the developers soon will fix these absolutely critical bugs and test networkmanager properly.
