     You add the following line to your home config in wpa_supplicant.conf:
     id_str="foo"


     and you put the following in interfaces:
----------------------------------
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
         wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf


iface foo inet static
        address      192.168.1.100
        netmask      255.255.255.0
        network      192.168.1.0
        broadcast    192.168.1.255
        gateway      192.168.1.0


iface default inet dhcp
-----------------------------------

With id_str, you can assign an interface name to every wifi station in
wpa_supplicant.conf
and declare in interfaces how you want it configured. id_str defaults to
"default"

     Attached are my two files. I have masked the passwords in 
wpa_supplicant.conf.I tried
to use a static address with the wifi in a hotel where dhcp wasn't 
working; I don't use
it anymore but there is the relic in wpa_supplicant.conf.


     For the file interfaces,I don't know how the instruction wpa-roam 
is executed, since
there isno file with this name in the system. I can only guess it is 
interpreted by
ifup/ifdown.Note the last line; it tells ifup that the default interface 
name used
by wpa_supplicant must be configured by dhcp.


     The only 3 package I have installed to manage the network are 
ifplugd, wpa_supplicant
and wpagui. I use the last only to enable a new wifi station or to 
disconnect/reconnect when
there is a problem. The rest of the time, wpa_supplicant does everything 
automagically.



     For the whole explanation, have a look at this howto:
