I would have to dissagree. I keep Airport on all the time, and, I never have any issues. When I connect to a wired network, that connection takes over. when I browse wirelessly via my AT&T U-verse connection, that takes over right away when I disconnect the CAT 5 cable from my ethernet port. I always make sure, though, to stay loged out of my wireless internet connection while I'm connected via CAT 5 cable.
When I do log in to my wireless, I always need to make sure to have the "remember this network" unchecked. That way, just in case my Mac is stolen, they thief can't get access to my internet connection. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!! Now A Very Proud and very happy Mac user!!!
