Comment 8 for bug 228578

I am trying to maintain simultaneous connections to a wireless and a wired network. I understand that the
Need help with setting up simultaneous network connections.

current version of wicd supports only a sigle connection at a time. Based on the previous postings, I decided to use wicd to connect to my wireless and use the /etc/inteface method to connect to the wired network.

my wireless network uses dhcp:
gateway:192.168.1.1
netmask:255.255.255.0
ip :192.168.1.101 (my router gives me this IP all the time based on mac address)

my wired network uses static ip:
gateway:142.65.64.1
netmask:255.255.255.0
ip :142.65.64.162
dns-nameserver:142.65.67.4

When the ubuntu desktop comes up and just before wcid connects, I can ping the name sever and www.google.com. But, Once the wcid connects, I can no longer ping the name server.
Instead of using my wired interface, ping tries to use the wireless interface. My wireless router is not connected to the internet. Basically, once wicd kicks in, the ping program sends the ping messages the wireless gateway instead of the wired gateway.

thanks
