I'm not using dhcp, just a static address. All I want the damn scripts to do is this modprobe ndiswrapper iwconfig wlan0 essid digitaltorque ifconfig wlan0 192.168.0.5 netmask 255.255.255.0 route add default gw 192.168.0.1 After looking at the net.example again maybe I need this modules=( "ifconfig" "iwconfig" "!wpa_supplicant" ) Or maybe I should just run an rc.local script.
