Wired and Wireless considerations
One reason I use a number of different profiles is that I have found that
when connecting to a wireless, both eth0 and wlan0 (or eth1) come up and
the default route in the routing table is usually missing.
it is very easy to fix:
ifdown eth0
ifdown wlan0
ifup wlan0
or use route add ...
Or use Network manager
In any case, very simple, but...
I can set up my profiles so the system is configured, and the profile
manager icon sits on the task bar.

Try using plugd and hotplug settings. this keeps both from coming up at the same time thus eliminating wrong routing info. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998
