This bug was marked Incomplete some time ago and was supposed to
autoclose after 90 days.  I'm going to close it manually due to no
activity (and likely the issue has gone away/been fixed).

Title:
  Slow network when NetworkManager manages a PPPoE interface defined in
  /e/n/i

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I have searched many websites trying to find the solution to this
  problem. I tried such things as disabling IPv6, reconfiguring Firefox,
  etc...  But I could not solve this problem. The problem occurs in each
  new version of Ubuntu and never gets fixed.

  You can see some of my efforts at
  (http://forum.ubuntu.ir/index.php/topic,22957.0.html) and (

  problem at http://ubuntuforums.org/  ...

  Description

  When I use pppoeconf in a terminal to connect to the Internet, every
  time I get this warning (in the terminal):

  WARNING: ifup -a is disabled in favour of NetworkManager.
  Set ifupdown:managed=false in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf.
  Plugin rp-pppoe.so loaded

  After I fixed this warning (by changing true to false), my Internet
  speed in Ubuntu has been working such as win7 without any poor
  perfomance; and when I restore the value to the default the Internet
  speed is very slow.

  Some of information about the case where managed=true:

  I have hp2170 laptop, have been using Hotspot(wireless)-128 kbps
  bandwidth (rise to 1 Mbps at night) from my local ISP, installed
  Windows 7 64-bit and Ubuntu 12.4 32-bit (in addition to WS08
  R2-Backtrack 5-Fedora 14-Windows 7 32-bit) .

  99% of the time I used those operating system for web browsing and
  download; I could connect to the Internet very well with no errors but
  as mentioned before I measured Internet speed.

  In Ubuntu 12.4 64bit:
  firefox (v 11):download speed:max 28 kbps
  open page speed:very slow

  chrome (better than Firefox):
  Open page speed:very good
  Download speed:max 80 kbps

  And synaptic package manager download rate: max 40 kbps

  In windows 7 64bit:
  Firefox 15.1
  both download speed and page speed:very good
  download speed:min 110 kbps (with IDM)
  please consider the max and min download rate.
