you are right and i was copying this command from a wrong place.

this is a little embarassing for me ;-) sorry you all for your waste of time
(coming after few hours of my wrong attempts)
next time l'll keep my brain lit up, when copy-paste commands..

like my command with correct gateway IP..

your "1.2.3.4" gave me opportunity to search for the right gw IP and
finnally discover my error,
so double thank you :-)

i ever wasn't able to correctly configure wlan interface by
/etc/network/interfaces,
and i wasn't able to well investigate because my local consolle crashes
everytime.

unfortunnately my router is a very basic model coming from my TLC company,
it uses the whole 192.168.1.x space for DHCP assigning , not configurable,
and i used >100 to be sure to don't interfere (it has to manage only 4-5
devices)

i'll keep your suggestions for future attempts in better contests (local
console working),
thanks
Marco
