Ok, I understood his question to be "at the same time" with two wireless
cards, but I guess that's wrong? Of course I understand the need to
have different static IP addresses at different times, I don't dispute
that at all... NetworkManager right now does not support having
multiple interfaces "active" at the same time, which is what I though
Peter was referring to. That's the edge case here (IMHO), not static
IP. Sorry if I misunderstood.
