I just tried again at my home network with the default interfaces file(attached). When I plug in the wired network I get the little icon with two dots and the blue thing circling the front dot is green and the back dot is blue. When I try to connect with the wireless I get the same thing except both dots are blue. I don't know if this is significant but I thought I would mention it.
