Wifi

[Adam]

I have to type:
    ifconfig ath0 up (to bring ath0 up)
    iwconfig ath0 essid "linksys" (to connect to my router)
    iwconfig ath0 ap 00:00:00:00:00:00 (it would be my MAC instead of 
all zeros)
    dhclient ath0 (to get an IP)
The fifth command was "wlanconfig ath0 list scan" before connecting to 
the router to scan for networks, but I shouldn't need to do this.  Even 
though I do this when I start up the computer, I have to redo when it 
starts up again.

Also, when the computer is booting up, it says:
    Bringing up interface wifi0. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 
. . . . . . . .[     OK     ]
    Determining IP information for wifi0. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 
. . . . .[ FAILED ]
and it takes a long time to say failed, almost a minute.  I don't want 
this to slow down the boot up, even if I do get those other commands 
after it.

Thanks in advance,
Adam
