Hi, i'm using Gnome-PPP and wvdial to connect to internet with my Nokia mobile (because the PPP utility of Gnome Network doesn't support personalized modem init strings), and Network Manager tells to other applications (Gaim, Liferea, Epiphany) that i'm not online. So i think that this bug affects also Dial-up PPP connections.

I think that in Gutsy whe should focalize on network configuration, expecially on:
1) PPPoE GUI
2) Ability tu use Network Manager with WPA AND Static ip (or personalized dns) and not WPA OR Static ip
3) PPP dialup GUI, with the ability to detect modems, use personalized init strings, use personalized dns.

In this state, Network Manager break things and Gnome Network Utility missing functionality.
