I recently purchased a ThinkPenguin Wireless USB adapter because I
have a built-in Intel wireless card to work with my Thinkpad. I've
been spending some time to get wireless up and running, and I can say
with the utilities like wpa-supplicant, iw, and ip, it's a very
tedious process every time you wanted to get your wireless network up
and running. I think we should get a wireless network manager, and I
do not recommend NetworkManager since it has a dependency on systemd
and we don't have that. I would recommend wicd, except that its
development it practically dried up, but it's still usable, I don't
know of any other network managers, but maybe we should look into it.
The Wicd is a good alternative and there are fewer dependencies. I
believe that Wicd package will go out in soon.
