10 WiFi Radar \- utility for managing WiFi profiles
20 is a PyGTK2 utility for managing WiFi profiles.
22 It will look for the config file in
23 .B /etc/wifi-radar/wifi-radar.conf.

30 Recent versions partially implement WPA-TKIP with wpa_supplicant. You
31 need a running wpa_supplicant installation with a
32 /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf file. Then by setting in your
33 /etc/wifi-radar/wifi-radar.conf file the "use_wpa = yes" option and
34 "wpa_driver = ipw" for example, wpa_supplicant will be launched when
35 you connect using this profile.
37 But currently you can't set your wpa_supplicant options like the psk,
38 proto, key_mgmt etc. using
41 configuration file should be set and tested already. If you have
42 different networks set in wpa_supplicant.conf, then you can switch using
47 script accepts the following command-line options:
52 \fB\-v\fR, \fB\-\-version\fR for printing the version.
