Thread: Please stop giving newbies complicated networking advice!
people use interfaces , pppoeconf. breaks networkmanager
it's common people use pppoeconf instead of networkmanager's built-in pppoe configuration. of these people not use cli more running ppoeconf, , causes headaches in future. example, type of configuration makes hard troubleshoot people's problems, needless duplication of labour , needless prefaces on tutorials. while experience ubuntu have been easy, people posting how dsl connection working. inevitably, tells them use pppoeconf. inappropriate
check networking subforum, frustrating undo work done after reading half tutorial. think there should effort update ubuntu's support documentation! has high google ranking, people should encouraged use networkmanager matter of policy. wishes use /etc/network/interfaces have skill read more complicated documentation, people need guis tend skim documentation.
else think problem should solved?
yes
