When I turn on the FR, I want an internet connection (well, 95% of the time), that is gprs should come up and stay up until I suspend manually or I shut down. When one of the networks specified in my wpa_supplicant.conf is available, I want it to become the defaultroute without manual interaction. When I move on and leave the WLAN range, it should fall back to gprs as defaultroute. And then I want a gui to check for new WLANs available or to disable the current WLAN if it's too slow for me. > What I would like though is to make a dbus daemon so applications could tell > Iliwi-the-daemon to connect to configured networks.

Editing the wpa_supplicant.conf is optional, but I'm much faster with vim and wpa_passphrase (yes, I don't want the cleartext-pw in that configfile). _______________________________________________ Shr-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shr-project.org/mailman/listinfo/shr-devel
