Ok, I understood his question to be "at the same time" with two wireless cards, but I guess that's wrong? Of course I understand the need to have different static IP addresses at different times, I don't dispute that at all... NetworkManager right now does not support having multiple interfaces "active" at the same time, which is what I though Peter was referring to. That's the edge case here (IMHO), not static IP. Sorry if I misunderstood. Dan
