This still doesn't fix the problem if Network Manager doesn't recognize your
connection. I followed the directions at
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=598890 to set up a bluetooth PAN
connection to my WM6 phone. Recently, Hardy released a new bluetooth and
bluez-utils package that did not include the "pand" command, which I need to
set up my bluetooth connection (bnep0). I'm running my bluetooth stuff from
another repository as described in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez-utils/+bug/192043

I am currently connected to the internet, yet Firefox, Pidgin, etc. still
reports as offline because of NM.
