Thank you Andriy, that solved my problem and made me recheck my rc.conf
which should already be configured to start the interface automatically.
I then found an embarrassing misspelling. I had written rum0 instead of
run0 in the line that reads 'wlans_run0="wlan0"'. I knew I had done
something stupid and I apologize for the noise.

Vital information that is now memorized. Thank you once again for your help.
