+ # where 803-3 connections are assigned to. If we do have hal
+ # it will create several ones which is not what we want since
+ # the NM_IFACE_FORCE hack will point them all to brbridged anyway
+ # and expose the internal IFs.
+ # What we do need is a plugin that handles our weirdness or at
+ # least a patch to make it not use HAL and just have only the
+ # one forced interface.
