Hello All,

I needed to add a pci vid/did to etheriwl.c to get my wifi card
working.  I'm sending the patch to the mailing list, but if folks know
of a better place for this info, let me know and I will re post it.
The card I have is an Intel AC-7265 and I am running 9front.

Now that I have my card working, I would like to have it connect at
boot. I have the following commands to run.

bind -a '#l1' /net
echo 'key proto=wpapsk essid=ESSID !password=PASSWORD' >> /mnt/factotum/ctl
aux/wpa -2p -s ESSID /net/ether1
ip/ipconfig ether /net/ether1

I was wondering where to put these commands.  Should they go into
/bin/termrc or is there a more suitable place?

Thanks in advance,

Chris

typically, the 9front list is where the 9front
patches go: 9front@9front.org; applied this one,

you can put it in plan9.ini, something like:

        ether1=type=iwl
        essid=ESSID
        wpapsk=PASSWORD

Sorry for posting to the wrong list.  I will redirect my emails in the
future.  Thanks for applying the patch for me.
