are you sure about this???
where is the pointer to docs to state this?
i seriously doubt that firefox has any way of knowing about NM specifically..
but it is curious that you can ping, but not access via FF.. what
happens if you download/check with Opera..

Which browser? Firefox and Evolution both use NetworkManager to

there is no connection.
