Forcing device names

HI to all. On my laptop my wifi card sometimes comes up as eth0 sometimes as eth1. Is it possible to force it to come as one so as to allow me to configure an automatic connection to the network? Thanks to all of those who take the time to read this post.

Thanks. I'm sorry to have bugged everyone with a pre-asked (and answered question).

... and perhaps edit your first post and label the topic [solved] too?
