Hi,

Why don't you just update to 5.X, run mergemaster-

Then just remove the wi0 card and plug in a ethernet
cable to the internal NIC ? This works wonderful here.
No manual interaction needed anymore. Dhclient had a bunch
of fixes for this problem, the rc system had it too. All of
them are fixed.
