Ciao Daniele,

Once connected a dongle, even if it has never connected to a switch or
router, the mac enters a state in which it is configurable by ordinary
wifi/wired network profiles.

thanks for your research, it seems you are right with everything.
No idea whether this is a glitch or was even done one purpose by Apple ...

Just for the records: My strange effect with the WiFi only profil was trivial:
Wired was still included despite the name :-((
I had misunderstood the profile editing logics:
You can globally enable wired, but NOT disable it for specific profile.
If you want different wired settings in your profiles,
you have to do it the other way round: Disable wired globally, enable for
specific profiles.

Cheers, Martin
