hi guys,
i am looking for a good wifi connection manager for debian etch. at the
moment, i must have the actual connection hard-coded in
/etc/network/interfaces. changing the network then involves editing
interfaces file, ifdown/ifup... i am now gonna travel a bit and use many
different networks and this attitude is, i'd say, suboptimal (or
annoying - i am getting lazy).
what functionality i'd like to have?
1) start this application (undex X)
2) check for networks around
3) connect to a known one or select an unknown network
for my home network, i need WPA. i am using enlightenment as a window
manager. most of kde/gnome is installed as well (you cannot avoid it
anyway), but i am not much familiar with the configuration details of
these two 'packages'.
i've tried with kwifimanager, but it seems to pick only the network
defined in /etc/network/interfaces - it doesn't see anything else. and
when i remove the definitions in interfaces file, it sees more networks,
but i am not able to connect to them :(
thanks for any suggestions.
best,
