Re: network setup

Show all headers | View raw

I'm trying for a single wireless connection.
I wrote some stuff in /etc/network/interfaces and wrote some things in 
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf and found command line 
documentation for bringing an internet connection up incomplete. 
Iwconfig has to be given the interface and told just about everything I 
put into /etc/network/interfaces but at least iwconfig preserves what I 
tell it across reboots.  When I had a graphical user interface 
environment up I used a terminal and ran nmtui with no success too, so 
I've been around the block.
