That would be an option. How would this work if I didn't know what my connected networks were at any given time? I could have a static ip on the Ethernet NIC, a dynamic one on the 802.11 card and a different one assigned via PPP on the evdo card. If I move from one location to another the available (and hence connected) networks change. I would think that there's something out there that monitors the interfaces and automagically selects the most "appropriate" one. As Ken suggested http://support.microsoft.com/kb/894564/en-us has some useful information. However, the dialup connection offered by the evdo card (my old 1xRTT card didn't use PPP and this was less of a problem) seems to take precedence over the onboard NICs; I don't see any way to "de-prioritize" the evdo connection > Couldn't you just set multiple default gateways with > different metrics? _______________________________________________ Talk mailing list [email protected] http://seattlewireless.net/mailman/listinfo/talk
