How to enable Internet access on Slackware boot?

I am able to get online by, as root, wpa_supplicant -Dext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf and dchcp wlan0.

How do I do that automatically when I start up Slackware, so that all users can access internet?

If you went to SlackDocs you would find this
http://docs.slackware.com/slackbook:...r_lack_thereof
or this
http://docs.slackware.com/slackware:..._configuration which in turn links to this.
