this may sound too simple to some, as a newbie, i found it useful ...
CorePlus-4.2 ships with a very nice wifi setup utility, you click the icon on wbar, it finds all wlan networks around you, you select yours, it connects for you.
quite nice, yet, you have to repeat this for every reboot.
this wiki link provides ways to automate the wifi connection:
http://wiki.tinycorelinux.net/wiki:setting_up_wifi?rev=1323363219i try to boil it down to a few simple steps: (supposing /opt instead of backup is used)
1. after click wifi icon to connect to WLAN, go to /etc to find a file called wpa_supplicant.conf, copy it to /opt so it becomes persistent, this file contains credentials of your WLAN, it's generated every time you click the icon to connect.
2. suppose your WLAN interface is wlan0, if you are not sure, type iwconfig in terminal to find out. create a file called _wifi.sh that contains two lines:
wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /opt/wpa_supplicant.conf -B
udhcpc -n -i wlan0
3. save _wifi.sh at /opt so it is persistent too.
4. open file /opt/bootsync.sh, add one line at the end:
/opt/_wifi.sh &
5. reboot
