Description Matthias May 2009-04-18 17:30:39 UTC 
There is a popular German DSL provider whose default hardware setup is a DSL modem together with a wireless bridge. As network-manager does not handle pppoe over wireless yet, one has to use pppoeconf in combination with network-manager which causes quite a few problems for beginners, as pppoeconf changes the interfaces file so that n-m does not handle the device any more.

So it would be nice to have the possibility to set up a DSL connection over wireless, like you can (could?) do in Suse with Yast.
