Daniel, Each interface (eg, your ethernet card, wireless card, even modem), have different settings and priorities. You can setup your Ethernet interface to be static IP'd and your wireless to use DHCP. When you unplug your Ethernet cable and then enable your wireless, the wireless configuration will be used. No problems. -- MrC ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=468 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18085 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
