Hi,
I have 2 network card, the first one is onboard network card and another is attached wifi card. I can connect to the network with each of them alone, but I cannot connect the two network card in a same time both with knetworkmanager (YAST tell me that I MUST used ifconfig for multiple card) or manual ifconfig.
I've tried with same IP set (192.168.0.x) or different IP (192.168.0.x and 192.168.1.x) or trying with DHCP client with no luck.
Is this possible to get the two network card (onboard and wifi) connected in a same time ? in previous, I've successfully connected with 2 network card (both of them are wired) on openSUSE 10.2
Yes, you can use both wireless and wired ethernet but not both to the same network - they must be in different subnets or you will generate routing loops (unless your router supports spanning tree protocol and you then need to run routed on the client to handle the multiple/redundant routes). You will need to configure each ethernet device via Yast or manually via ifconfig. You will need to use ifup to enable each network device (should be set up automatically by Yast if you tell it to start each interface at boot time or when the cable is plugged in). If you want to bridge the two networks together then you'll need to install and configure routed; you may also want/need iptables as well. It can be done - I have 2 laptops configured this way (without packet forwarding) and also have 2 network cards in my desktop machine (all running 10.3) so I know it works.
