Hello. I put my wireless settings in /etc/network/interfaces, but since I set up WPA, DNS doesn't work until I do 'iwconfig wlan1 essid Main key off && dhclient wlan1' as root. I can connect to IP addresses before I do that command. Here is my /etc/network/interfaces:
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp
## dhcp
# address 192.168.1.2
# netmask 255.255.255.0
# gateway 192.168.1.1
## static
# address 192.168.0.11
# netmask 255.255.255.0
# gateway 192.168.0.1
auto wlan1
iface wlan1 inet dhcp
wpa-driver wext
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
wireless-essid Main
wireless-mode managed
# auto eth1
eth1 is my wired interface. As a temporary solution, I made a script with 'iwconfig wlan1 essid Main key off && dhclient wlan1' and made an activator on my panel that executes the script with gksu.
