Dapper: Network settings behave strangely

[Alex Bligh]

Binary package hint: gnome-network

I have an IBM T60p with a wireless LAN card and a wired ethernet card. I enabled both in the hope that it would use the wired connection in priority. However, on boot up the wireless interface does not connect as it does not remember the WEP key (this isn't the main bug). Disabling the wireless interface then disabling and reenabling the fixed interface gets the fixed interface working. However, this is lost by a reboot (this is the main bug) - it always comes up with both interfaces enabled (and thus not working). I don't know whether the fact the wireless interface and wired interface are on the same subnet has confused things.
