notes!

Plug in the dongle

Run iwconfig wlan0 scan to list all the local networks

Find your network, we'll connect to adafruit (not listed here, just substitute your own connection name)

Configure the wlan adapter (we'll be using WEP here, WPA is more complex)

  • Set the WiFi password with iwconfig wlan0 enc XXXXXXXXXX where XXXXXXXXXX is your 10 digit hexadecimal WEP password (ps. our password isnt really DEADBEEF00)
  • Set the channel to match the one in the iwlist output
