Thread: /etc/network/interfaces wireless wifi example

I'm on Ubuntu 9.04 and my card working fine if I punch everything from a command line. I need to automate this by editing the network configuration /etc/network/interfaces file. Can anyone provide me working wireless config file example for WPA2?

Here is what you need to put for wireless interface

Code:

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf for WPA2 / WPA:

Code:

network={
        ssid="ADD-YOUR-SSID-HERE"
        proto=RSN
        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
        pairwise=CCMP TKIP
        group=CCMP TKIP
        psk="ADD-YOUR-WPA-PASSWORD-HERE"
}

once done restart networking:

Code:

sudo  /etc/init.d/networking restart
