FS#436 - net-connector: default profile needs to be fixed
Somebody has reported me that recently, no one of its computers will connect to internet automatically (wired), after to talk a bit with him i have discover that he has just set a own profile name to their connections (instead to keep the default name)
Cause: He has changed the default profile to other name
This could be a very common problem, the users don’t know that they needs to use the name default in order to have it to autoconnect or it will not work.
Fix: What I think that could be a good fix is to don’t permit the user to change the name default on the profile, until there’s actually a profile called default existing and that has the autoconnect set to Yes. Any better idea ?

Message for Pacma: Esta noche estoy compilando una nueva version de net-connector que LinuxNIT ha arreglado este problema :), chequea si hay updates en las proximas horas y cuando encuentres una de net-connector actualizalo, borra todas tus configuraciones, y prueba de volver a configurarlo tal y como lo hacías antes (poniendo tu propio “profile” a ver que pasa y me cuentas tu experiencia :P, ya que pretende ser perfectamente entendible para todo el mundo). Posdata: La iso actual tiene un bug con el xorg.conf, utiliza un xorg.conf viejo si ves que este está incompleto
This looks strange, but most users try to change name to something different.
I also tried that.
Reason: there is no user friendly way to make another ethernet profile.
There should be [Edit] button, or [Help] button to at least explain where to edit net-connector profiles.
Hum, if im not wrong, since you create a "default" profile with the "autoconnect" button checked, you can create other profiles, what you think about ? and... can you try it ?
If im not wrong and my memory is OK, this problem was fixed a while ago by LinuxNIT, im correct LinuxNIT ?
