    Automatic connection to WLAN?

    I have Knoppix 3.9 HDD installed and upgraded kernel to 2.6.13. My wlan card is Belkin f5d6020 ver 3 that uses Realtek RTL8180 chip. I compiled driver for my card (rtl8180-sa2400 Linux kernel driver). Driver is loaded from /etc/modules-2.6.13. When I boot to KDE i have to manualy run as root:

    iwconfig wlan0 essid linksys
    ifconfig wlan0 up
    pump -i wlan0.

    Netcardconfig does not save my network parameters.
    How can i fix that? What files do i have to modify?

    Thanks in advance.

    Try the /etc/network/interfaces file. I found some info on adding the wlan info like ESSID at http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/m...ng_is_working.. You should ignore the ndiswrapper stuff but I figure that the rest should be correct.

    That didn't work for me. I edited /etc/network/interfaces. Wireless-* options did not worked for me. When i do ifconfig it has my ip, netmask, bcast... problem is with iwconfig. It doesn't show my essid..

    when i do
    iwconfig wlan0 essid linksys
    ifconfig wlan0 up
    my network starts... without pump. So problem is in essid.

    It is not readed from /etc/network/interfaces...

    PLEASE HELP... i hate typing every time those commands
