Hi List, I'm doing some investigations with Atheros-based WiFi pcmcia card using madwifi driver (Dell D620, OpenSUSE 10.3, latest madwifi driver 9.3.3 rpm for SUSE 10.3). Since I need to play with device modes, I added "options ath_pci autocreate=none" to modprobe.conf.local and I'm using wlanconfig to create ath interface with needed mode. It looks strange to me that every time the new interface is created, the line with its name and MAC address is added to /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules. So when I ran wlanconfig for the first time, it creates ath0 and adds ath0 to persistent names. After I destroy the interface (wlanconfig ath0 destory) and re-create it again, it creates ath1 with the same MAC address. Next time it's ath2... I do not understand how it works. How can I ensure creation of the same interface every time I ran wlanconfig ath0 create...? Should I use some device ID other than ath0 in wlanconfig command? (I tried to google but have not found the answer - probably my keywords were not good enough).
