Thanks for confirming the setup. I basically use the same but with
DHCP enabled.

I've done quite a bit of testing lately. Turns out that *sometimes*
lagg0 works as advertized. When the box was booted with WLAN available
only, I can plug in a patch cable and connect to my DSL router via
LAN. Most of the times though, this does not work. After plugging in
the cable, I cannot make any outbound connections. The box can be
pinged from other boxes in my LAN though. *Sometimes* the following
commands will enable networking after plugging in the patch cable in
these cases:

service netif start
service routing restart

But then, most of the times this does not help either. I'm at a loss
now. I'm actually wondering if the problem is located on the other end
of the line (I'm using a Fritz!Box 7113 DSL router for both LAN and
WLAN).

regards,
Markus
