Is it possible to boot over PXE and then switch to the wi-fi network?
I have my wi-fi laptop connected via Ethernet to my network in order to boot an Ubuntu live CD image via PXE.
Now that I have booted up and my "ubuntu" desktop is up and running, I would like to switch to the wi-fi network so I can remove the network cable and walk around as usual until the next time I reboot.
I have connected to my wi-fi network, and ifconfig reports the expected IP address and settings for both eth0 and wlan0, with both on the same network.
At this point, I removed the Ethernet cable; however, it looks like I still can't get to the network in the Web browser, I can't ping any LAN devices, and typing "ls /" in the terminal window hangs until I reconnect the Ethernet cable.
I also tried this:
# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
default router.network 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 wlan0
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 wlan0
Is there something I still need to do, or is this not possible?
Thanks.
