Hi guys I'm back with a differend mail address, hope someone missed |
| 5 |
me :-) |

I tested both, but NM keeps shutting down wired NIC randomly, sometimes |
| 8 |
is eth0, other times is eth1. |

eth0 and ath0 are connected to the same access point, so it is sane to |
| 11 |
inhibite eth0, but I have hundred services relying on eth1 (fixed IP, |
| 12 |
internal network), half my system go upside down when eth1 lose its |
| 13 |
address. I don't want NM to touch this interface, even it is unplugged. |

|

Is it there a way to fix this? |

With wicd is trivial to pair eth0 and ath0, but it runs wireless for a |
| 18 |
few minutes, then it switches back to wired. |

So I'm going to try wpa_gui... |
