I'd bridge your WLAN and ethernet adapter into one device using brctl, then use your bridge as your network device instead of eth0 or wlan0 or what have you.

This'd mean disabling automatic configuration for those two devices somehow, and probably installing the bridge utilities. I know how to do this for my distro but not yours unfortunately...

NAME
WiFi Radar - utility for managing WiFi profiles SYNOPSIS
wifi-radar [OPTION]... DESCRIPTION
WiFi Radar is a PyGTK2 utility for managing WiFi profiles. It will look for the config file in /etc/wifi-radar/wifi-radar.conf. You can change that in wifi-radar. If the configuration file does not exist, it will create it, so you must always run it within a correctly permitted account (as root or use sudo or pam). Recent versions partially implement WPA-TKIP with wpa_supplicant. You need a running wpa_supplicant installation with a /etc/wpa_suppli- cant/wpa_supplicant.conf file. Then by setting in your /etc/wifi-radar/wifi-radar.conf file the "use_wpa = yes" option and "wpa_driver = ipw" for example, wpa_supplicant will be launched when you connect using this profile. But currently you can't set your wpa_supplicant options like the psk, proto, key_mgmt etc. using wifi-radar. Your wpa_supplicant configu- ration file should be set and tested already. If you have different networks set in wpa_supplicant.conf, then you can switch using wifi- radar. The wifi-radar script accepts the following command-line options: OPTIONS
-v, --version for printing the version. FILES
/etc/wifi-radar/wifi-radar.conf See for more information. BUGS
Probably lots! Because of repeated scanning, WiFi Radar is very power consuming. Please report bugs to the mailing list <https://lists.anl.gov/mailman/listinfo/wifi-radar> MORE INFORMATION
