The "NetworkManager" is new to me (I don't know if it was in 10.1, but I never installed that release) and I'm wondering what advantages or trade-offs it entails. Is it recommended or preferred for all 10.2 installations? Because I was unfamiliar, I just went with the "Traditional method with ifup" for my alpha and beta installations.
NetworkManager is handy on a notebook with WLAN because you can easily choose the network you want to connect. It's also handy for VPNs.
Nevertheless, at least under KDE, KNetworkManger still has many issues, as you can see from looking at bugzilla. So if you can survive without NetworkManager, it will probably be better for you for now.
