switching from wireless to wired networking does not work
With XP, I could be working on wireless, then plug in an ethernet cable and
traffic instantly switches over to the faster wired network. With Vista, this does not work. Plugging in a wired cable does not switch the traffic. I have to disable the wireless connection and restart explorer. Is there a way to get this to work? Is it a security issue?
