Comment(by mikus):

 Replying to [comment:7 hhardy]:
 > mikus, what build are you running? I didn't see this behaviour on 642,
 656, 702, 703 or 708... but do see on joyride-2230. --HH.

 At my house, each time I first boot ANY new build, I immediately use the
 ethernet to download additional modules.  Meaning that ethernet has worked
 for me for EVERY build I ever had.

 [Since I have no wireless, and no Access Points where I live, I have not
 checked on whether "Access Points" are being "ignored".]  So far, when I
 go to an establishment that provides a wireless "Access Point" (but no
 ethernet), I've always been able to connect.  So I have nothing in my
 experience to relate to when you use the phrase "this behavior".  Note
 that I do NOT have a 'school server'.

 I normally install the newest Joyride build every three days or so.  The
 only one on which I stayed for a while was 2056 (I was waiting for f9 to
 settle down).  Don't recall 2230, but have lately run 2224, 2228, 2232,
 2237, 2240, 2246.
