Now, I want to offer one more thing; my specific launch script I use to over-ride the defaults in Suse. Let me explain and remind you a bit&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>On *my* laptop, where I use the wireless adapter, I also have Xen paravirtualized guests and VMWare virtualized guests. I need absolute, predictable, control over my interface for proper networking of my guest\/lab environment in *different* network locations. So, there is no way I can allow the Suse built-in network configuration tools to control my adapters and my environment. Instead, I run a set of scripts for my wireless configuration, one of which I want to share with you.<\/p>\n<p>The contents of this script are not overly complex, or innovative, but it is a nice, orderly, convenient way for me to setup my different wireless networks when traveling between my home and my office (or other). So I offer it to you as the final piece of the pie in how I do it&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, I *have* edited it down a bit, removed extraneous comments, and changed some specifics like addressing&#8230; Enjoy!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/yourlinuxguy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/11.sh\" title=\"11.sh\" target=\"_blank\">MY WIRELESS STARTUP SCRIPT<\/a><\/p>\n<p>..two things are worth noting in this file: 1.)
