That's the way it works here. No matter which address I use, when both connections are up, I can connect.
And how do you manage to do it automatically?
It just works with Linux, but not Windows.
On my "stable" partition, I have both eth0 and WiFi connections have the same IP and they collide, I get martians and failed connections. I have to disable one manually.
Again, you don't give them the same address. Give them different addresses. Then whether WiFi alone or both are connected, you can use the Wifi address.
But I insist I want to have the same address, and I do. I "simply" disable manually the WiFi when I notice.
I would like WiFi to detect the situation and disable itself automatically, on Linux. On Windows I do not care, but I think it disables itself automatically. I would have to confirm. "I think" ? Proof, Carlos, ICT is about 'true/false', '0/1', not about what one thinks or believes ( to remember ). Confirm this for yourself before

Another thing: having both or all network interfaces active is a feature, where you have set yourself to have a requirement that conflicts. I for one would never want two network devices on one machine having the same IP. And neither would I like to have the system deactivate one on activaition of the other one.
