Where can I get information on the settings for ifcfg-wifi0 configuration
file?
I have the wireless working with a script that I wrote but I want to
automate it so it follows the setup of an ethernet card on boot up.
When using the ifcfg-wifi0 settings it starts slowly and when it does come
up ping doesn't work(destination unreachable). ifconfig shows it up and
iwconfig shows it working. Route shows the proper default gw.
here is my script - it works
#!/bin/sh
/sbin/modprobe ath_pci
/sbin/modprobe wlan_scan_sta
/sbin/ifconfig ath0 up
/usr/local/bin/wlanconfig ath0 list scan
/sbin/iwconfig ath0 essid "linksys"
/sbin/ifconfig ath0 192.168.1.25 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
route add default gw 192.168.1.1
Here if my ifcfg-wifi0 - this doesn't
I have changed the onboot to no so it won't hang on bootup, I change it to
yes and then issue a /etc/rc/d/init.d/network restart and it fails. This
is after a fresh boot and without running my script.
client@client ~]$ cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wifi0
