Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager
Okay, so I have a pppoe-connection to my internet-provider which I
connect to via a WLAN-AP that's connected with my home-network.
In network-manager I can set up my Ethernet (eth0) connection to connect
to the local network and my ppp0e (ppp0) connection to the internet.
When I click on network-manager, I only have radio-buttons to select the
desired "wired connection" which only allows me to EITHER start eth0 OR
ppp0. When I'm connected to the internet, I can't access the LAN and
vice-versa.
The ony solution for me right now is to use pppoeconf and configure the
eth0-connection via config file, which of course breaks network-manager.
What I am asking for is simple: Allow the use of more than just one
"wired connection" in network-manager (ditch the radio buttons and make
them "multiple choice"?)
here's my etc/network/interfaces: (comments were made by me for better
readability here, they're not in the file itself)
##BEGIN interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto dsl-provider
auto eth0
iface dsl-provider inet ppp
pre-up /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up # line maintained by pppoeconf
provider dsl-provider
iface eth0 inet manual
##END interfaces
