Description Paul Ortyl 2005-09-23 08:16:46 UTC
There is no way to specify any parameters for wireless network configuration,
which would be set per ESSID.  Parameters like 
ESSID_key, ESSID_iwpriv, ESSID_ap.... cannot be set for ESSIDs like 
"my-wlan" or "univ-wlan".

If there exists already a simple workaround, then there is no documentation for it.
