Title:
  can't activate dsl provider via network manager applet, must use pon
  dsl-provider

Status in network-manager-applet package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  In the Network Manager Applet, I can see listed the connection for my
  DSL provider in the list of Available Wired Networks.

  However, if I select my DSL provider, it does not connect, and instead
  tries to use some other Wired connection profile or else hunt for an
  open wireless connection.

  I can get online by running pon dsl-provider, but I have to do this
  every time I restart or need to reconnect.

  And at this point the nm-applet reports "No network connection" when
  in fact I am connected. If one of my Wired Network Connection profiles
  happens allow it to Connect Automatically, then nm-applet reports it
  is connected to that wired network, and not the DSL provider.

  This problem started happening when I was running 9.10, and still
  persists under 10.04.

  I think I had tried to solve the problem once by adding the daily
  build network-manger ppa to my sources https://launchpad.net/~network-
  manager/+archive/trunk, which I think I learned about from this bug
  thread https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-
  applet/+bug/255625

  but now I have the lucid versions installed for all my network-manager
  packages.
