probably for you, but for me it is convenient with a script because depending 
on my location I connect to different ssids, so my script asked me which of 
the available ssid I want to connect to, still more since some are dhcp and 
others not and some use the ndis module and others a pccard and load the 
module if necessary. My NB hangs when I put a pccard in while the ndis module 
is loaded. 

Another problem seems to be that the NIC going inactive and getting a new dhcp 
ip do not overwrite the defaultroute even if dhcpd delivers it. So I need to 
delete and write a new one.

may be I could do this all with devd but I am more familare with sh
