LAN question - TC1100

I have just upgraded to a TC1100 from the TC1000 model. Now, at my work
place I have a wirelsss LAN and the TC1100 works fine accessing that.

Now, my docking station for the TC1100 obviously has a port for a LAN
connection over a wired connection (and at a much greater speed).

When I had the TC1000, when I inserted the tablet into the docking station
the machine would switch to using the wired LAN connection...when I removed
it from the docking station the wireless would kick in.

However, this is not the case with the TC1100. It wants to use the wireless
connection unless I temporarily disable it...when defeats the purpose
really.

What settings am I missing??? I have looked to no avail..

Can anyone help?

TIA.

Re: LAN question - TC1100

Don't you have a button to turn the wireless off and on? Use that to turn
off the wireless before docking, and you should be fine with the Ethernet
connection. Pull the machine from the dock and turn the wireless back on.
