can wicd simultaneously connect two networks via different interfaces

hi, recently, I installed wicd. I am tired for figuring out of NetworkManager stuff.

however, for same reasons, I could not configure my ethernet and wireless interface at the same time.

for example, in my case, I have enp0s25 and wlp3s0 interfaces. however, wicd only allow me to connect one at a time. especially when I connected enp0s25 via wicd-curses, it actually disabled the wlp3s0. (the interface is set down by wicd, but I still can see the available network, very strange)

is there a way to deal with that ?

Re: can wicd simultaneously connect two networks via different interfaces

Wicd is kinda strange, it usually picks the wired over the wireless (and there is an option for that).  You can get it, by allowing wicd to connect wirelessly, and manually dhclient the eth0 interface.  Netctl can help in this allowing both interfaces to go without manual intervention.  The only difference is you won't be roaming like you can in wicd.


I may have to CONSOLE you about your usage of ridiculously easy graphical interfaces...
Look ma, no mouse.
