You need a running wpa_supplicant installation with a /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf file. Then by setting in your /etc/wifi-radar/wifi-radar.conf file the "use_wpa = yes" option and "wpa_driver = ipw" for example, wpa_supplicant will be launched when you connect using this profile. -.TP 2 +.PP But currently you can't set your wpa_supplicant options like the psk, -proto, key_mgmt etc. using wifi-radar.
