I have never had to do anything with setup.cmd and do not have to issue any
commands to change the configuration.  I have the wired LAN configured in TCPIP
(LAN0) and when I start XWLAN it creates a LAN2 and connects.  This has worked
with the PRISM driver with XWLAN 1.2 and the GENMAC driver with XWLAN 2.0.  Of
course if you have a current connection active and want to change to a
different connection without a reboot then you will need to issue commands to
delete the current connection and create another connection.
