Hi! I think you should be able to ass the MAC address of the Wifi device you want to use to the settings for the wifi network to have it always use that device. To get the MAC for the wifi device, use ifconfig. e.g. ifconfig wlan1 Then add that in the network's settings under Device MAC address. -- Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre <mathieu tl gmail com> Freenode: cyphermox, Jabber: mathieu tl gmail com 4096R/EE018C93 1967 8F7D 03A1 8F38 732E FF82 C126 33E1 EE01 8C93
