Access Connections + Simultaneous Wireless and Wired

[mashimus]

Hi All,

I searched everywhere and could not find an answer to this. To the people using Access Connections on their Thinkpads, is there anyway to create a profile that uses both your wireless and wired connection simultaneously?

Right now, it's either one or the other, but not at the same time...! hmmmm... am I missing something here...

Thanks!

I don't think you can apply both Ethernet and Wifi settings in a single profile, but you can overlay them.... Apply a wireless profile, and then apply a wired one. The trick is setting them to NOT disconnect when applying the second one. Here's how:
Access Connections>Locations>Manage Profiles

Select each profile>Edit...
UNcheck "Disconnect from the network when switching to a different location"

Do this for all the profiles you want to overlay.

hey thanks for that... it sounds like it'll work. I'll try it tomorrow when I'm back at work...!

Yep, it worked exactly as you described LB_BlueVue... thanks!
