Wi-Fi auto connect after boot

Help

Most of the times, it works for me.
Once you have successfully connected once, i.e. the your password was accepted and added to Haiku’s keystore keyring, you can try two things:

  1. create the text file /boot/system/settings/network/wireless_networks manually (which AFAIK should have been created when selecting your wifi from the Network preferences, but maybe wasn’t).
    In it, you enter: network SSDNameOfYourWifi

  2. If that doesn’t work (after a few reboots) try to put this line into your /boot/home/config/settings/boot/UserBootscript:

    ifconfig /dev/net/iprowifi4965/0 join SSDNameOfYourWifi YourSecretPassword

Worth a try. Good luck.
