Hello Folks !

I have the problem that on my Laptop my WiFi does not
work with my wired NIC if both are on the same
network.
If they are in different networks (e.g. 172.* & 192.*)
then they work like a charm.
But otherwise only the first NIC works, the other one
"drops dead".

  
This isn't necessarily a bad thing, Rick. Search through the list archives at http://lists.2rosenthals.com/os2-wireless_users/List.html, and you should come up with a slew of discussion threads concerning XWLAN and this issue. I'm not surprised that you have experienced that behavior (and now I'm expecting a n onslaught of criticism from the rest of the group as to why connecting both interfaces to the same network - even when the NICs aren't properly teamed - is a *good* thing :-)  ).
By the way, did they get that PM WiFi tool to work by
now?

  
??? Are you referring to XWLAN, now up to version 2.14? See http://wlan.netlabs.org and the official XWLAN discussion list at http://news.gmane.org/gmane.org.netlabs.wlan.general/ for more information (and we are fortunate enough to have the author, Christian Langanke, as a regularly-contributing member of this list, as well).
