Networking :: WiFi card start on boot ?



My wifi card, PCMCIA, is working fine with ndiswrapper. However, I have to enter command " sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid ****** key ****** " then goto netsetup,netcard config... every time I boot my computer. None of this is a big deal and it is now second nature, but I am still wondering if I have missed some simple solution that will start my card and allow to connect with my given info automatically.
See /opt/bootlocal.sh
If you use the control panel then a script is generated in /opt/bootlocal.sh called myndis.sh. sudo that script or all a call to that script in /opt/bootlocal.sh

here's my output

#!/bin/bash
# put other system startup command here
/sbin/syslogd

The myndis.sh script is created in the /opt  directory.
Look for it in /opt
Add it to your .filetool.lst to have in the backup/restore
Add it to the /opt/bootlocal.sh to have it start at bootup.

Newer versions of DSL prompt you to "Save wireless" upon shutdown. This automates the above process.
