I have both a wired nic and wireless nic in my notebook. For the longest time I had used only the wired nic as I couldn't determine a driver for the wireless nic. Now that I have a driver for the wireless nic (IBMPRISM) and can get it connected, I'd like to use Wlan/xWlan to select which nic I use after booting up.
I installed Wlan 2.0, but have the IP Disabled problem, so I then installed the 1.20 version. Now I need to know what needs to be set where so that I don't get error messages during boot if my wired nic is uncabled and how to activate the wireless nic and be able to switch between them.
When tcpcfg2 has "not enabled" and "DHCP" set for the wired lan and the nic is uncabled, the command run during boot for dhcpstrt fails.
Both nics have tcpip and netbios over tcpip in MPTS, as I have a peer network.
What I really want to do is have a clean boot with no network active, then select which I will use for that session, either wired, wireless at home, or a hotspot.
Thanks.
