So what I understand is that you are online but not using network-manager, so network-manager says you're offline (and that's why liferea starts in offline mode). If that's correct, there's no bug in Liferea, and you either should remove network-manager (since you don't use it), or use network-manager to setup the network. If you can't do the latter because of a network-manager limitation, then this is a network manager bug. Cheers, Emilio
