Well, I only had old WEP system. I ordered chronological order. Maybe for squeeze, I should reconsider. It looks like squeeze should have better network-manager or its alternative for laptop due to enhancement of these softwares.

Maybe removing network-manager will help. Are you squeeze? ifmetric trick should help. I got sick of wireless and wired my house with 100mbps connected to 100mbps optical. (I will be upgrading to 1Gbps line soon or my house.) lenny->squeeze transition for network-manager is another issue. With new squeeze kernel, my MacBook will have smooth WEP/WAP capability. Once I see testing to stabilize (i.e. decent security support etc.), I may be more active with WEP/WAP. > The ifmetric info is really good too; I was wondering how to get my > machine to prefer the landline.
