[driverloader] Using other device than eth0

[Linuxant support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

you can use the 'dldrconfig --netdevname' command in a root shell to 
force DriverLoader to use a specific netwotk interface. For example, if 
you want that DriverLoader uses the 'Wlan0' network interface, you can 
use the following command in a root shell :

---
dldrconfig --netdevname=wlan0
---
