Broadband dialing for ubuntu wireless connection needs to connect to a wireless router to access the internet yesterday, but I did not expect to connect to the wireless router, but still need to make adsl dialing to access the Internet, however, the default network connection settings of ubuntu do not provide this function. Find the following method through network search: configure a pppoe connection with the following command: the last step of the sudo pppoeconf Wizard will prompt you to start dialing, or manually run the following command sudo pon dsl-provider to disconnect sudo poff www.2cto.com. Practice has proved that this method is feasible, but there is a risk that my computer cannot connect to the wireless network after it is restarted.
The possible cause is that the NetworkManager does not host a wireless NIC due to the preceding settings. The solution is as follows: sudo gedit/etc/NetworkManager. conf: Change [ifupdown] managed = false to [ifupdown] managed = true, save the configuration, and restart the computer. Ps: it is best to copy this method to the local machine. Otherwise, this method will not be available even if the network is not connected.
