WZC conflict

I have been trying to have both wireless adapter and a wired one
connected to my router, at the same time. It was never working
correctly with Wireless Zero Configuration. I finally gave up and
went with the manufacturer's include tools and this is now working.

Can WZC create a successful wireless connection when a wired one is
also connected?

Then, can you explain why my previous 802.11G wireless network did
work with my wired connection. I have been trying all "summer" to
replace it with 802.11N.

Hi
I an not sure what the problem is, a wire and wireless adapters can connect
and obtain IPs from the same Router but they can not actually work at the
same time (that is the limitation of a client OS).
If you want to establish priority use the metrics (

I had a wired and a 802.11G adapter connected at the same time for
years prior to this summer. I switched to a 802.11N wireless network
and attempt to re-create my previous set up (base WZC was active.)
Nothng worked when WZC was active. WZC completely "killed" all
network access when my wired connection was enabled / connected. Each
worked by themselves. Then, I recently decided to attempt this with
the bundled configuration tools. Lo and behold, all worked.

Hi
So it worked OK with previous Wireless and now with a different Wireless
hardware that is in Draft stage (there is No 802.11n) it is troublesome.
It is possible that while the vendor's software is compatible with the
Wireless hardware and Windows, it might not be really computable with WZC.
Since there is No standard it is hard to know who to blame.
