After trying many different wifi managers, I finally discovered NetworkManager and find it to be absolutely fantastic. I am your average Joe user (not an expert that is) - and love that NetworkManager "simply works" for me without having to google up strange incantations to make my wireless work.
I have a couple of old PCs at home running FC5 for which I don't have a monitor connected to them. These PCs have wireless cards attached to them. Can someone explain how to make NetworkManager work at runlevel 3/4 from the console. I mean I have chkconfg-ed the daemons to run for run levels 3 and 4. But how do I latch on to a particular wireless network from the console mode ? For runlevel 5 - the way it works for me is that I click on the SSID of the wireless network and supply the WEP key when prompted. I am not sure if there is a similar tool in the console mode.
I'd be grateful for your advice.
Cheers,
Anand.
