    What model of Dell do you have? I am running an Inspiron 1150 with both
    nics set up and I let Knemo do the deed. Turns it into a no brainer.
    Whichever is connected will fire up and be used. Of course the wired one
    takes precedence. If no wire then the wireless takes over.

    Nice, with little monitors in the bottom button bar to show a connection.
