This is a quick post so I can remember these details.
So, on the [R810](/categories/r810.html), I am currently running [ArchLinux](http://archlinux.org), which uses by default [NetworkManager](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NetworkManager), which I have a love/hate relationship with. At my last job, I recommended removing it from our servers, as under [RHEL6](http://www.redhat.com), it does very odd things to the network and is hard to manage. I have heard that it is better under RHEL7. But, it does let you do some really cool things. On the R810, there is a cellular modem, and on previous installes, I have had it configured and scripted using **nmcli** to easily bring up and down the cellular connections.

The problem I am facing now is that my current DHCP server for the house does not let me provide two MAC Address for a single IP, so when I dock the R810, it gets a different IP address than when it is on WiFi. Very annoying. Also, for some reason, it would prefer to use WiFi when the ethernet connection was present, thus giving me a slower connection.
