    Hi,

    I've got an x220 and an ultrabase. Whenever I connect to the base, it correctly uses the hardwired network connection but also turns off the WiFi radio. Then when I disconnect, I always have to turn the radio back on via the F5 applet. Is there a way I can keep this from happening? It also happens when I happen to just connect an ethernet cable directly to the machine.

    Thanks,
    Charlie O
