Re: help with script for wifi

Hi K,

"route -n" will show you your routing information.

"iw list" will show you your wireless devices.

ifconfig eth0
ifconfig wlan0

will show you the status of your network devices.

Except that you may have to change 'eth0' 'wlan0' to other
values, depending if your OS assigns devices to eth1, eth2,
wlan1, wlan2, etc.

best,

Joel
