Hi, I had played around with wifi and tried to get some desktop symbols. Here is my solution, that in my case works due to unencrypted wifi.
I have tested the scripts on my FSO 'more homework' (4.1) with suspending the phone to see if wifi keeps working after wakeup. Maybe there are 'better' GUI solutions, but for me it's good :-) I think where could also used some python scripts to list scanned essid to select from. Also there could be developed some generic dialogs that doesn't rely on any specific distribution. But I am much away from writing python scripts :-) Lothar Shellscripts in /home/root yet (to be moved and desktop files tweaked): wlan.sh to activate wifi and deactivate usb0 to simpify routing #!/bin/sh # Replace openmoko with your essid iwconfig eth0 essid "openmoko" && ifup eth0 && ifdown usb0 wlan-off.sh to revert back to usb0 #!/bin/sh ifup usb0 && ifdown eth0 Desktop files for each: Switching on...
