I have just been setting up a friend's old PC that only uses modem for 'network'. Initially NM showed "No network devices found" and I needed to do the manual setup as describe earlier.
However, as I have a network here, I temporarily installed an ethernet adapter in the machine to facilitate the big post-install package upgrades. Then (maybe after a reboot?) in addition to "(o) Wired network" showing up in NM, I also have "Dial Up Connections", with pop-out menu "Connect to ppp0 via Modem, Disconnect from ppp0 via Modem" After removing the ethernet adapter again, the Dial Up menu item is gone again :( -- network-manager doesn't handle ppp connections. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220497 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
