Hello. In my XBMC I have configured two network interfaces, eth1 and wlan0 with different IP addresses. By default xbmc uses eth1 interface. How I can make using the interface wlan0 xbmc?
Greetings and thank you very much

Well, we need some more information. Are they static? DHCP? How did you "Configure" it? Encryption? You can try looking in /etc/network/interfaces

put a pound sign in front of these two lines like so

Code:
# auto eth0
# iface eth0 inet dhcp

and add pretty much the same thing but witout the pound sign and make it wlan0

Code:
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp

if its static you can figure it out quick enough with a google search or even right here on the forums.
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.2.99
netmask 255.255.255.0
