    Connect to Wireless in Terminal (encrypted)

    Hello everyone, I'm currently running Debian and working over Wireless, and I'm looking to learn exactly how to connect to my own encrypted wireless network using the konsole/shell/terminal, and then looking to learn how to write a script and keep it on the desktop so I can easily connect.. I'm a bit of a Linux newbie, so thats why I'm asking. If you wouldn't mind helping me out with this, it would be an extremely big help. I also posted this in the wireless section as well, just looking for a quick answer.

    Thank you all very much, please get me away from the Micro$oft Hell

    You can try making a wifi.sh containing
    Code:
    #!/bin/bash
    wpa_supplicant -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -D wireless_driver -i wireless_interface -B
    dhclient ath0
    replace wireless_driver and wireless_interface with yours
