Comment 21 for bug 86680

I'm using Kubuntu 7.04 and have had difficulties with establishing a network connection.

I have an old Duron machine with an Ethernet device but this is not hooked up to anything. Meanwhile, my serial line is connected to a dial-up modem.

After reducing the connection speed to 38400 I was able to get kppp to dial in and connect to my ISP. Unfortunately, konqueror cannot get to the internet.

So, my Knetworkmanager only shows my "eth0" connection, enabled by default, but my carefully established ppp0 connection is never mentioned.

My instinct tells me that successful establishment of a default route over my PPP link probably depends upon Knetworkmanager at least recognizing that I might want to use a network connection apart from eth0 etc.

Any suggestions? TIA.
