Hi, our current default wireless framework in base /e/rc.d/network script is iwconfig (Open/WEP only). I like to integrate wpa_supplicant as easy as we could use iwconfig ATM. iwconfig is a useless framework in most user environments in these days (most AP's have a stronger encryption than WEP'), but it is a "easy" tool. Two possibilities: a) Throw away iwconfig(wireless-tools package) from rc.d/network and use wap_supplicant only. wpa_supplicant could of course do all the things iwconfig is for. b) Let the user decide wihich wireless framework. This could be done by seperate /e/conf.d/wireless from wireless_tools and add therin config options for each iwconfig and wpa_supplicant. Ex.: --------------------
