Problems with wifi

[Mark Phillips]

My system keeps beeping at me....I get this from dmesg:

[  362.815785] eth1: New link status: AP Out of Range (0004)
[  366.310658] eth1: New link status: AP In Range (0005)

I am connect to a wired LAN. eth1 is not enabled.

/etc/network/interfaces:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

noauto eth1

auto eth0

iface eth0  inet static
        address 192.168.25.148
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        broadcast 192.168.25.255
        gateway 192.168.25.1
        dns-search tc.ph.cox.net
        dns-nameservers 68.105.28.12 68.105.29.12 68.105.28.11
        up echo "home-lan"

What do I need to do to stop the wifi interface from creating these error
messages? I would like to shut it down if the network cable is installed,
but I need it when I move the laptop to another location that has wifi. I
need my local wifi for my blackberry, so I cannot turn it off.

BTW, if I change the interfaces file to bring up the eth1, I have great
signal strength since my wifi router sits about 10 feet from me in the same
room.

Thanks!

Mark
