It does. While I have not been able to do full isolation/elimination

every time) if I say "ifconfig eth0 down" prior to starting it. Which

Apparently you have your own reasons for not using network-manager and
nm-applet (by purging the packages and reinstalling them), the reasons
for which are somewhere in the threads.
However, what you said above reminds me of something which may be
helpful. In the old days, one used `ifup wlan0` or similar, to bring
up the wireless connection (which in turn used dhcp-client, etc).
Since the days of network-manager and nm-applet, I see wpa_supplicant,
and not dhcp-client, etc. of old. In fact, the interfaces that network-
manager manages must not be in /etc/network/interfaces (where a
network that is to be ifconfig'ed must be specified).
