Re: [CentOS] Configure wireless USB ethernet

I did it by hand first and then completely restarted the server. In both cases the service started, but it did not bring the interface up as far as it connecting to my wireless and getting an IP from the router. Do I have to create an ifcfg-wlan0 file for the interface? If so, what goes in it?
