RSSHow to make network manager ignore a networking device
Nov 07
This was done on Ubuntu 10.10.
My laptop has a built in wifi device but it doesn’t supports the N norm.
I bought a new wifi device and I want network manager to ignore the built in.
To do that I added the following line to /etc/network/interfaces:
iface eth1 inet manual
This makes eth1 configuration manual and network manager ignores it.
