Has that been done? I assume so, since the wireless device *does* work. It's seen at boot (I can see it coming up during the start-up dialogue). It just doesn't work unless I execute those commands at root. Incidentally, I've found that these two commands are all that I need: # iwconfig wlan0 key restricted <my-key> # ifconfig wlan0 <ip-address> Since I've decided to use a static IP address for the computer on my home network. I still need to execute these manually if I want to use the wireless card. -- Slainte, Richard S.
