We're getting closer to communicating with each other now...
I agree with the delay in switching the interface being monitored...
Eventually, it does get it right. So, we're the same there.
Where we differ [I think], is that even though the correct interface is
finally monitored, the monitor still does not show an IP address,
apparantly because it says:
"DHCP client is not running."
Now, the client *is* running. So, why does the monitor fail to
recognize the client and, therefore, display the IP address instead of
saying the IP address is "Not configured"...????
This used to work. Doesn't now...
I don't know why; what changed; nor how to fix it.
