See 'man wi' for the appropriate additions to ifconfig. You may find /etc/start_if.wi0 a good way to set this up, as well. These are also places to enable WEP and set the keys. Note that there is a plan afoot to eliminate the capability of wicontrol to set up the card, so I'd stick to ifconfig. R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
