Interesting.

Is lan1 indeed the number of your wireless adapter?

Yes, I deduced that from the order of the
assignments in the router.

Actually, the key is not the router, but in PROTOCOL.INI:

<snip>
[TCPIP_NIF]

   DriverName = TCPIP$
   BINDINGS = E100BEO2_NIF,IBMPRISM_NIF,,

Thus, the E100B driver is bound to lan0 and the IBM Prism driver is bound to lan1.

Please ensure that you have *no* entries for lan1 in your TCP/IP configuration notebook. XWLAN should manage this entirely on its own. Could you please follow-up with a copy of \MPTN\BIN\SETUP.CMD as well as \MPTN\ETC\DHCPCD.CFG ?

This is surely an odd one. The IBM prism driver is quite old, too, though I don't really suspect that that's the cause of this. If it were just an XWLAN thing, then I might lean in that direction (some lack of proper functionality for XWLAN to adequately see the device), but at the command line, it should behave. The dhcpmon -t command kills the DHCP client daemon, allowing it to switch to a different interface via the -i parameter.
