NAME
wifi-radar.conf - utility for managing WiFi profiles

SYNOPSIS
wifi-radar.conf [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

wifi-radar.conf is the configuration file for wifi-radar, a PyGTK2 utility for managing WiFi profiles.

EXAMPLES

Here is a sample configuration file using some features.

[DEFAULT]
ifup_required = False
auto_profile_order = BRTRY25TYU,WIFI_INED_RECHERCHE,WIFI_INED,any
speak_up = False
scan_timeout = 5
interface = eth1
commit_required = False
[BRTRY25TYU]
mode =
key = e06de61003
use_dhcp = yes
security =
channel =
[WIFI_INED]
use_dhcp = yes
[WIFI_INED_RECHERCHE]
use_wpa = yes
mode = Auto
use_dhcp = yes
wpa_driver = ipw
[any]
key =
use_dhcp = yes

Recent version partially implements WPA-TKIP with wpa_supplicant. You
    need a running wpa_supplicant installation with a /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf file. Then by setting "use_wpa = yes" in your /etc/wifi-radar/wifi-radar.conf file and "wpa_driver = ipw" for example, wpa_supplicant will be launched using the ipw driver (ipw2100 or ipw2200) when you connect using this profile.

But currently you can't set wpa_supplicant options like psk,
    proto, key_mgmt etc. dynamically, i.e using wifi-radar. Your wpa_supplicant configuration file should be set and tested already. But if you have different networks set in wpa_supplicant.conf, then you can switch using wifi-radar.

In the above example any option but "wpa" options can be set manually.

BUGS

Probably lots!

Because of a continuous scan, wifi-radar is very power consuming.
