I have not done anything with udev yet... I read through the Wireless netwrok configuration wiki, but didn't see anywhere on how to create the interface. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wireless_network_configuration#Interface_activation
I'm starting to read the wiki on udev, but is that too general, or do you know of something else I should be looking at? https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/udev ip addr only lists eth0 and lo.
