Dilmi, you're bug said that NM doesn't support PPPoE.  I've pointed out
that the feature exists which why this bug should be marked Invalid.

If you can't make successfully create a DSL connection with Network
Manager, then you should create a new bug which gives us the details of
what you tried.  Without such details, we can't begin to solve your
problem(s).

A good place to start would be to create start from scratch and try to
create a DSL connection via the Edit Connections 'DSL' tab.   If you try
this and it still doesn't work, then connect back to the 'Net via Wi-Fi
or Ethernet if possible, and report a new bug using the command ( from a
Terminal, or Alt-F2: Run Application ):

ubuntu-bug network-manager

This will collect a bunch of debug information from your machine and
bring you to Launchpad where you can file a new bug.

When you do so, please add a details description of each step you took
to configure your DLS connection.

Eg.

1. Launched "Edit Connections"
2. Clicked "DSL" tab
3. Clicked "Add" button
4. etc...




If it doesn't work for you, then you need to file a bug with the details

Bug description:
Hi everybody;

People who use PPPoE connection need to use pppoeconf tool in terminal so as to create a connection using old routers. Why do we not include that in network manager by making it support this kind of connections.
