I am currently running hostap and a prism2 wifi card. I use it
in many different situations (WEP/open, static/dhcp) and with
many different sites, and often in places where there is more
than one ESSID available. I deal with this for now by using
scripts (run as root) that copy the appropriate config file on
top of /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0 . There has
got to be an easier way - say an X popup + scroll and select
interface that lets me choose among the available known and
new APs that are available. I understand windoze and mac do
something like this, and imagine the there is a similar Linux
offering somewhere.
Any suggestions?
