Useful commands

Assuming the device is 'wlan0'.

To find possible accesspoints:

iwlist wlan0 scanning

This works depending on modes set. On my orinoco gold:

  • ad-hoc: finds itself
  • managed: nothing found
  • monitor: "doesn't support scanning"
  • master: SET failed on device eth1

Software

  • wireless-tools
  • wpasupplicant
  • kwifimanager
