hello all
ive loaded dsl onto my laptop, and its fantastic.but...
i cant get it to remember my wireless settings.
i run dsl panel, then iwconfig, change the eth0 entry to ath0 and then enter ssid and password.
its rock and roll after that . i run the backup utility to my hda1 and sda1.
when i reboot, , i still need to go through everything again
excuse my ignorance , but where , how and what do i do ?
thanks for taking the time to read this
oh, and a smilie for you all

If you are using the 2.3 RC1 or RC2, there is a script that reminds you and does it if you say yes. In older versions you need to put the opt/myiwconfig.sh line in the /opt/bootlocal.sh script so it knows where to find the settings when it boots.
