Check your /etc/network/interfaces file - is there an entry for ppp0? If
not so, create an entry for it. NM checks interfaces file and if doesn't
find an entry it thinks that the interface is not up. It used to happen
for me when I move from PPPoE to direct connection when I switch between
my connection at Chennai (where I have to manually connect through
pppoe) and here.
