 |
|
I'd like to have /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 in the foreground while it tries to start but couldn't find the option until now. I'm using wpa_supplicant for it with the following settings : | Code: | modules=( "wpa_supplicant" )
wpa_supplicant_eth0="-Dmadwifi"
preferred_aps=( "<name of my company>" )
config_wlan0=("dhcp" )
dhcp_wlan0="nontp"
dhcpcd_wlan0="-L -t 16 -h <hostname>"

| I don't think you can keep it in the foreground with wpa_supplicant. |

This will make the init script wait forever for association: (/etc/conf.d/net):
| Code: | | associate_timeout_wlan0=0 |
Or just set it to some reasonable large number, like 60 (secs), just in case the AP is down. |
