Description of problem:
Although it is possible to set up and it is actually very useful to be
able to work using wifi and when needing the higher speed, just
connect the network-cable and see it using 100Mbit or 1Gbit automatically.

The problem is that for making it work, you should configure the
wireless interface first prior to bringing the bonding interface up
and enslaving them, which is not possible using the normal scripts
from initscripts.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
initscripts-7.55.1-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Fedora Core 2 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for
security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please
reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a
security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC3 updates or
in the FC4 test release, reopen and change the version to match.

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2005-09-30 21:27:17 UTC
Closing bugs on older, no longer supported, releases. Apologies for any lack of
response.
Realistically, I don't see adding this function in the future; it requires
operating on a bridged wireless/wired network in the first place, which normally
isn't the case.
