I heard that when you have both wired and wireless NIC's enabled and both are
running, the system will default to the higher of the two connection speeds.
Meaning, if my wifi tops out at 54 Mbps and the wired LAN is 100 Mbps, then I
will be connected at 100 Mbps.
Is there any documentation anywhere that supposrts this?
