Networking :: Guide to setting up wireless



"sudo pump -i ath0" to get a dhcp address..
Or you could type the addresses manually from "sudo wlcardconfig", if you remember them..

Thanks Curaga, it is connected now, with no wifi security.

Are there similar commands that will allow me to easily get WPA security to work on the connection, as I don't want to run an open network. I'll try later today.
:0 I'm not sure. I don't own a wireless card (my router would have it though)..

wpa_supplicant is used to encrypt the connection, but I have no idea about it's usage..
