But as I said I'm sure Ubuntu worked like that with two static IP addresses. You're not telling me Ubuntu is better than Slackware are you...

    Yes I'm not.

    I think there is something to be said for installing ifplugd. It autoconfigures interfaces on the basis of whether they are plugged in or not. Maybe that's where the magic is

    I can't check right now. But my approach would be to play with the `route` command first. Can you post the output of `route` here?

    OK. My route

    Code:
    Kernel IP routing table
    Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
    localnet        *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth0
    localnet        *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 wlan0
    loopback        *               255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
    default         192.168.0.1     0.0.0.0         UG    1      0        0 eth0

    It's trying to push out the bits through eth0.

    You may be interested though that Slackware has a graphical configuration tool called wicd in the /extra package collection. It may be that is a quicker way to solve this than to adjust your routing.
