Hello all,

Is there a way to set the interface to be the default route in NetworkManager?

My desktop (openSUSE 12.3 KDE 4.10.3) has two interfaces: (1) Wifi USB dongle which
connects to my router (Internet/Intranet) and (2) Wired Ethernet port that connects to my
NAS[1]. In this situation, the Wired Ethernet interface because the default route. I
want/need the Wifi interface to be the default route.
Both interfaces work (connect, tx, rx). However, I need to reset the default route using
/sbin/route command. I cannot seem to find the setting in the NM widget in KDE.

Cheers,

Alvin



[1] Ideally, I would connect the NAS (DLink) to the router instead. However, the USB
dongle sucks and drops the connection due to poor hardware. This messes up transferring
large/many files (e.g. Digikam) from the NAS over wifi.
