I've got a bit of a conundrum that I can't find anything for, so I'm asking for help.
I recently got an AR2Drone from Parrot. I'd like to get some cool software on it, explore its file architecture, etc.
I don't have a laptop, just a PC. It's got an ethernet cable running to my router, and a usb wifi dongle that is connected to the drone's network. The drone acts as its own wifi router, allowing connections to it.
So far, I've been trying to use telnet to connect to the drone. If I turn my wired connection off, I lose internet connection, but I'm able to telnet into the drone and issue flight commands to it with some software I have. But the moment I turn the wired back on, all of that stops working.
Ideally, I'd like to be able to have my wired connection up along with the wireless connection, so that I don't have to lose my main internet connection while working on the drone. I'm baffled as to how to get this working though.
So I'm wondering if there is a way to force wlan0 to be my default connection, or set a specific terminal window to only use wlan0.
