Put that command on a pre-up line in /etc/network/interfaces under wlan0. man interfaces will give more detail on the format of this file.

Connecting to a particular SSID
I've got ndiswrapper working with my Broadcom 4306 using my Windows driver, and I've got wpasupplicant installed. There are two SSIDs within range of me: mine (which is WPA/54g) and another (unprotected open 802.11b at neighbors house). ifup wlan0 connects me to neighbors SSID, I get an IP and can surf the web. Nice of my neighbor to have that, that means I know the driver is working. But how can I specify the SSID and connect to mine? I've read the commands to make wpa_supplicant start working: wpa_supplicant -Dndiswrapper -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -iwlan0 -d How can I make ifup wlan0 call this? /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf contains my SSID and WPA shared private key. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
