WIFI in Opie

I'm constantly moving from one WLAN to another, and having to manually
re-configure the settings in the Network GUI is annoying.

I decided to try creating a script file for each network I use, but
can't seem to get them working.  Here's a sample:

 

Ifdown wlan0

Iwconfig wlan0 essid work

Iwconfig wlan0 key 0102030405

Ifup wlan0

 

For some reason the key parameter works, but the essid doesn't.  I have
tried enclosing it in single and double quotes, and expressing it in
hex.  

 

Iwconfig wlan0 

 

Shows the new key information but the old essid.  Worse, when I go back
to the GUI and look at it, NOTHING has changed!  I also tried putting
both parameters on the same iwconfig command line, but that gave an
error message about the key parameter being invalid.

 

I'm running Open Zaurus 3.5.4.1 (Akita) 

 

Help would be appreciated!
