@ Yozig : I partially agree with you, but...hey ! The best would be to share
your little scripts for people who cannot understand scripts (or english)
easily enough to make a proper one
:D
I know the wiki has a lot of information, but it is hard to understand all
the things (especially for networking). For example, I can just dummly
copy/paste the scripts, but I understand nothing about netmasks, masquerade
and everything. I know we can learn, but some guys have less time ans
learning skills than others

Cheers

  Which is fine as well.

 What do you want plug-and played? Usb connection? Wifi? GPRS? It all
 seems like simple scripting when using the framework. I mostly only use
 Wifi and it wasn't too hard to make a shortcut on the desktop that
 turns on wifi and connects to preferred AP, if one doesn't exist then a
 free AP with the best connection quality and if that does not exist,
 flash the led so I know no APs are available. I'm not sure it could be
 made any more easier so with what exactly are you having problems with?

I wrote WiFi manager for SHR without any special knowledge about
netmasks, masquerade and everything :P It is in shr-settings
playground directory and it uses connman. Nothing difficult, trust me
:P

Network Management

2009-05-03 Thread RodM

I just changed from my OM, to a Palm Centro, Networking sucks, always had a
difficult time getting a reliable connection.

In contrast, the Palm Centro, was strictly plug-and-play. 

Once that happens, I will bring my OM out of the box, and start utilizing it
again.
