Yes thanks for this explanation. I found that by editing this: /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf [ifupdown] managed=true I changed to: managed=false That takes NM out of the picture whilst still on the computer. I've not had such a success with wicd as you and others. I don't quite know why this is. NM and wicd together don't mix well together, and I didn't want all those Gnome dependencies that come with NetworkManager-gnome Finally solved my problems with the: Penguin Wireless N USB Adapter for GNU / Linux (TPE-N150USB) by getting my /etc/network/interfaces in order thanks to Brian's post of this same thread.
