Hi!
This is my first time with wireless setup.
I installed wireless_tools, ipw2200-fw, rebooted and... it works (I unplugged ethernet cable and I still have access).
So my question is not about how to make it work, my question is - how my system knows which wireless network use?
I configured it this way:
eth0="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(lo eth0)
iwconfig shows:
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 IEEE 802.11b ESSID:"wiotel-net"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.437 GHz Access Point: 00:30:1A:09:38:2D
Bit Rate=11 Mb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm Sensitivity=8/0
Retry limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality=84/100 Signal level=-46 dBm Noise level=-85 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
eth1 no wireless extensions.
sit0 no wireless extensions.
Could you tell me what happened with my cable ethernet device? Is it eth1 now? How can I choose wireless network? It works out of box but I don't understand the details

But what about my question about different wireless networks?

check out /etc/conf.d/wireless

Actually you should look at /etc/network-profiles - /etc.conf.d/wireless is only if you use wifi-radar

or give network manager a try, it is in the AUR and in testing, it allows you to easily switch between networks and from wireless to wired

You could always try windows too!
