Did you mean that in a terminal, I type sudo ifdown wl01-nw22 or sudo ifup wlo1-nw22 > Alternatively, you could move the ones you want activated into > /etc/network/interfaces.d/, and move the ones that you don't > somewhere else, like /etc/network/unused-interfaces/. > That seems to be a good idea. So I moved wlo1-nw15, wlo1-nw51 and wlo1-nw70 to /etc/network/unused-interfaces/ leaving only wl01-nw22 in /etc/network/interfaces.d However, when I typed the following in a termminal sudo ifdown wlo1-nw22 The error was ifdown: interface not configured or ifdown: unknown interface The output of ip addr show show that my wireless interface is called wl01 I appreciate your help. Best regards. Stella
