[Bug 191889] Re: [MASTER] "Offline Mode" feature fails to detect proper online state for networks that are managed outside of network manager.

[Jonathan Blow]

Also having this problem.  Ubuntu 8.04, FIrefox 3.  Using an EVDO modem
over ppp.  Only one login session.

I am about to try Henry's fix (blocking Firefox from performing the
query) but I wanted to post first before I have to close all my browser
windows.

This is absolutely a bug in Firefox, regardless of whether there is a
bug in Network Manager.  Firefox should be reality-based when it comes
to making this decision: it should look at the actual routing tables and
what they are doing, not asking some high-level app.

It's annoying to see this bug still not set to status Confirmed when it
is so obviously broken, and so many people are experiencing it.  I
understand why earlier posters to this thread would be angry with the
response.
