I have an ethernet connection to my computer as well as several wifi access point SSIDs that I use for different purposes.
When the network cable is plugged in, the PC defaults to that internet connection. There is a (best guess description) terminal icon in the tray. I can click on it and it brings up the dialog with wifi and sound, etc. I can choose a wifi, but the PC seems to stay on the ethernet connection as reflected by the tray icon. If I go to Settings, Network, and disable the ethernet adapter, the wifi that I selected takes over and is correctly reflected on the tray icon.
Is there an easier way to switch between a wired connection and a wifi (and visa-versa) without having do disable the adapter?
