Re: PPPOE Problems

Why are you doing this on the command line? NetworkManager should handle that. Or you can also try wicd as an alternative. We used to need to do network config like 10 years ago, but these days are thankfully gone!

Re: PPPOE Problems

Network manager in Kubuntu Jaunty has serious problems as you can see by reading the network support posts.

Network manager in Ubuntu does work.

There are at least two solutions, remove or purge network manager and the applet, install wicd, run pppoeconf again and follow the instructions here: http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/inde...opic=3104329.0

Another option, don't worry about installing wicd, just use pppoeconf, then pon dsl-provider each time you want to connect.

Another option, install network manager gnome. I can't find the reference now. First option should work.
