i tried a lot of the available wifi tools, and none of them realy suited me. i also used 'iwlist eth1 scan' for finding the aps, and setting them manually. then i wrote a little script, that does this for me. the only GUI tool i use is the kwifimanager, for displaying the connection strength in the taskbar. regards, toby On 7/30/06, Ambrogio <fn050202@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Hi all, I would like to start using my wireless card. This is a BCM43xx for which I see the support on new kernel. I used it with a little AP without authentication in managed mode. I'm using KDE Now I would like to know somethings: What software I need for use it or configure it by GUI (kwireless tools for example). Until now I changed the config file and used iwconfig. iwconfig tell me that I'm using version 19 and the driver is compiled for version 20. How can i obtain the version 20? I tried to use airsnort to see if my card receive some packet, but I'm unable. I have to use other as driver type, but airsnort ask me to place my card into monitor mode. I don't know how to. I see some other software (like aircrack or other) but I didn't found it on fedora repos. What about wpa? (I see some about wpa_supplicant) but I don't know how to use it. I need absolutely Windows driver, or can I configure WPA even if I have only Linux? I'm sorry for a lot of questions, but in mailing didn't find something of usefull.
