1.11 Managing Internet Connections

To surf the Internet or send and receive e-mail messages, you must have configured an Internet connection with YaST. Depending on your environment, in YaST select whether to use NetworkManager. In GNOME, you can then establish Internet connections with NetworkManager as described in Section 10.5, Using GNOME NetworkManager Applet, (↑ Start-Up ).

For a list of criteria to help you to decide whether to use NetworkManager, refer to Section 10.1, Use Cases for NetworkManager, (↑ Start-Up ).
