You should leave the TCP/IP configuration of the Wi-Fi card entirely to XWLAN and simply ignore it under MPTS (LAPS). Follow up, what is the recommended configuration when both wired and wireless connection alternate? It seems I have to use MPTN to disable and enable lan0 and lan1 as needed. We've rekindled the discussion of this. See the thread with the subject "T23 internal cards success" for copies of Neil's REXX scripts for enabling/disabling of each IF. Optimally, you can do this using scripts under XWLAN, and basically, from the TCP/IP tab in the properties notebook of the widget. From the help page: Execute LAN configuration on disconnect select this option to execute parts of the TCP/IP LAN configuration (setup.cmd), when a Wireless LAN connection is disconnected from. This will reset the configuration of TCP/IP interfaces and routes to the state after system startup and is particular useful when switching between wireless and cabled connections. As the LAN configuration script normally deletes the default route, on reconnect this may require reconfiguration of the TCP/IP interface, even if the disconnect event was genereated only by turning the radio off (this nomally only temporarily disables the TCP/IP interface and therfore does not require a reconfiguration).
