I have a little shell script that I use on my Inspiron when I boot up. 
Basically, for my LEAP config, I have:

        route flush
        killall dhclient
        ifconfig xl0 delete
        ifconfig xl0 down
        ancontrol -i an0 -W 0
        ancontrol -i an0 -W 0
        ifconfig an0 ssid tsunami
        ifconfig an0 stationname jclarke-wireless
        ifconfig an0 wepmode off
        ancontrol -i an0 -L jclarke
        sleep 1
        dhclient an0
        killall -HUP -m sendmail
