Hello! I installed Arch on my new Thinkpad T450s over the weekend. Everything works well, but I have a question:
I use systemd-networkd to manage my network interfaces and netctl for the connections. I set everything up according to (this)[0] and (this)[1] to get automatic activation of wifi via netctl-auto and netctl-ifplugd.
My question is as follows: I use i3wm, and i3status shows *both* ethernet and wifi as connected if I plug in the cable while having a wifi connection. What does this mean exactly, and how is my traffic routed?
Thanks in advance for clearing that up.
Cheers, Bennett

Hi, I have exactly the same setup (i3wm, i3status and netctl) and the same behavior. If I plug in the cable i3status shows both connections. I manage it, that I deactivate the wifi-card with the hardware switch after I plugged in the cable and everything ist fine. I couldn't get netctl to deactivate the wifi automatically.
