Public bug reported: Binary package hint: netapplet
Selecting another wireless access point only changes association. I.e. only iwconfig is run, ifconfig/route/ifdown/ifup is not run -- bug in Debian port of netapplet. Revision 4 of http://vmlinux.org/jocke/bzr/netapplet-1.0.8/ implements a fix: Fix netdaemon_do_change_essid_debian() so that it properly takes the iface down before associating to a new access point and then also brings the iface back up again. This actually works well with the Debian logical mapping stanzas and the netapplet can now be used instead of running ifup manually with different mappings, e.g. ifup eth2=ZyXEL or ifup eth2=WRT54GL.
