To me, trying to control wireless with ifup is an impossible task. I have 5 APs and about 30 different wireless interfaces that I use for testing. Generating all the necessary ifcfg-wlXXXX files would be the only thing I would ever get done.
ifup/wi-fi works well here on a notebook, at least on oS 11.4.
It works here with 13.1, and I have one machine that runs text only with ifup for network control. For machines that run X, I have an AP using WPA2 with 802.11n, another for WPA with 802.11g, and a third for WEP. To test a particular device with each of these, all I need to do is click on the NM applet display. With ifup, I would need to either edit the ifcfg-xxxx file, or run YaST and reconfigure the device. Considering multiple wireless devices makes the problem even more complicated with ifup.
