Statically assign an IP to the wlan0 interface and set the netmask to 255.255.255.255. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

I thought I could use eth0 for upnp (mediathomb), while having wlan0 for remote ssh session from my laptop... How do I configure prefered route ?

Right now both eth0 and wlan0 are up (as > reported by ifconfig) In cases where you have wired and wireless interfaces and use both it makes sense to use a dedicated software to manage them, like wicd. It switches automatically to wired if present (configurable), network-manager probably does this as well.

Right now both eth0 and wlan0 are up (as > reported by ifconfig) Quick and dirty: make a traceroute to any Internet host and you'll know what device is in use :-) Just guessing, but I think wifi devices take preference over ethernet ones (unless otherwise specified).
