The computer can tell which interface by use of routes. You will need to put one subnet (say, 192.168.1.*) on the wired network, and a different, distinct subnet (such as 192.168.2.*) on the wireless network. Then the IP addresses will be used to tell wired from wireless traffic. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Fuzzy Fox) || "Good judgment comes from experience. sometimes known as David DeSimone || Experience comes from bad judgment." _______________________________________________ Masq maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Admin requests can be handled at http://www.indyramp.com/masq-list/ -- THIS INCLUDES UNSUBSCRIBING! or email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] PLEASE read the HOWTO and search the archives before posting.
