Using Apple internal airport card ? I have no problem with this setup. I have eth based networking at work and airport based networking at home. I have a couple of shell scripts to switch my setup and they work just fine at any moment. I can ifup/down etc... both airport and ethernet regardless who was "active" when going to sleep etc.. Ben.
