network question

[nimits]

Does anyone know if i use both the wireless receiver and the ethernet cable to connect to an internet network (different provider) is going to be a problem or i will have better results? (for ex better speed)

The computer will keep an IP address on both, but will only use one at a time. By default the primary connection is the Ethernet connection.

Yep, he is right it's no problem. I have both on most of the time, never had issues.

you will want to check in "system preferences -> Network", make sure ethernet is first in the list to give it priority, otherwise it will use your wi-fi even with a cable plugged in.

if it's not in the correct order, click the settings button at the bottom of the list, and pick "select service order"
