[Bug 82335] Re: network-manager should not set offline mode when it manages no device

[Curtis Hovey]

The issue is a little more complex, but it can still be said the NM is
misbehaving. NM/gnome-network-manager failed to establish a connection
to my home wifi after my upgrade to feisty. I switch to manual
configuration for wifi only (leaving NM in charge of the lan that was
not connected). Epiphany and Gaim both start in offline-mode and require
some tinckering to get them to stay in online-mode.
