I am running Arch Linux (on a Raspberry Pi 3) and tried to connect both the Ethernet and the Wi-Fi to the same network. route shows me the following:

Both wlan0 and eth0 interfaces were able to get an IP address from the router.



But it turns out that only one of these interfaces ever works. The other interface cannot be pinged and is not connectable. Usually it's the Ethernet that works but sometimes it's the Wi-Fi.



What's happening? What can I do to make this work?

As you have found out, from the routing perspective, while possible, it is not ideal to have addresses from the same network in different interfaces.



The routing expects a different network per interface, and ultimately one of them will take precedence over the other in routing, since they overlap.



The advised solution for having more than one interface connected to the same network is to aggregate them together in a bridge interface.



The bridge interface will "own" the IP address, and the actual real interfaces are grouped as a virtual single entity under br0.



allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet manual

allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual

auto br0
iface br0 inet dhcp
bridge_ports eth0 wlan0

  • But still with the bridge, in most topologies, only one of them will wind up getting used because the other one will be shut down by spanning tree — or if spanning tree is turned off then you will have a devastating loop in the network.
