Number 1. Hmmm. Not seen that. I'm sure I have booted without and ethernet cable attached and wireless not yet configured and not seen that. I'll add to my list of things to check. Thank you. Number 2. I'll make sure the web-gui adds (or keeps) 'SCAN_SSID=1' to the ifcfg file when setting a user defined network name. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JackOfAll's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3069 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98544 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
