I've made a lot of progress. I can get the wireless connection to work as long a I do everything manually. So far I have not been able to find any config files in gentoo to set things like the ESSID, WEP, etc. If I use the net.eth1 script to bring up the wireless, it does something that screws it up, but if I just do: ifconfig eth1 up dhcpcd eth1 it works fine. So my question now is how to correctly automate the startup and be able to deal with different WAP's, as well as easily switching from wired to wireless. From what I've been able to determine, I think I'll have to write my own scripts for this, but any pointers would be appreciated. I've read about netenv, but it is a boot time change. What I want is to be able to use the 100baseT wire when I'm sitting at my desk, but be able to pull the wire and walk away with it switching to wireless without missing a beat. I thought this would be something everyone would want to do, but so far haven't been able to find any info on this type of setup.
