I was wondering how I could get dsl to save my wireless settings for when I reboot. I set up my channel, sid and wep using iwconfig. After I reboot I have to enter it in again everytime. I found similar information but not anything that I have been able to get to work.

The control panel iwconfig GUI creates your saved settings in the file: /opt/myiwconfig.sh

So, you should be able to add the line /opt/myiwconfig.sh to /opt/bootlocal.sh

Now, since /opt/bootlocal.sh is normally in the default filetool.lst your wireless seeting should persist between reboots.
