    Network Manager with mobile broadband and DNS addresses

    I use Network Manager with mobile broadband.
    It works crappy well.
    But I want to change the default DNS addresses with the OpenDNS ones.
    There isn't the tab named "IP Address" like for the cable networks.
    How can I do it?

    not sure if this is what you mean, but...

    right click nm icon -> "manage connections"
    click "wireless" tab -> "add"
    enter name and usual stuff...
    click "IP Address" tab
    select "automatic dhcp" addresses only" in the "configure" drop down.
    add you opendns addresses in the "dns servers" textfield

    that should be it.

      Thank you but you can't understand because you don't use mobile broadband settings.
      I don't use any wireless network!

        you're right, yeah.
        now i see.

        guess you'll have to edit your /etc/resolv.conf file, then.

            At least you still have a mobile broadband tab. Mine is greyed out since kde4.4.1 (KK, LL Beta) >

                speaking of Network Manager with mobile BB, i could easily connect my Sony Ericsson K800i and immediately went online, but it ain't working against my iPhone even after enabled Teethering feature over USB.

                any ideas? TQ
