What is this

+

+ With this setup, wpa_supplicant automatically changes network when needed. + Moreover, the network can be changed in userspace and new networks can be added. + All withouth the bloat of NetworkManager and ModemManager. +

+ +

Requirements:

+ + +

wpa_supplicant

+

+ /etc/network/interfaces needs for direct use with a wpa_supplicant daemon. + This is done by setting the wireless network as follows. +

+ + 
+allow-hotplug wlp2s0
+iface wlp2s0 inet manual
+	wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
+
+ +

+ This basically means that a wpa_supplicant will be watching the networks specified in the config and switch when in range. + Note that the iface is set to manual and not dhcp. + This means that below those lines you can configure your networks from the config manually. + So say that you have a network in the wpa_supplicant.conf with id_str="work"" that needs to be configured with dhcp, you add the following lines: +

+ + 
+iface work inet dhcp
+
+ +

+ Setting id_strs for all networks is tedious so to create a default setting you can use the default network name to for example set all wifi networks to dhcp. +

+ + 
+iface default inet dhcp
+
+ +

wpa_supplicant.conf

+

+ The config file for wpa_supplicant should at least contain the following lines. + The interface line defines the control socket and states that all users in the netdev group may control wpa_supplicant. + The update_config line states that the config file may be updated, thus having persistent changes. + Users you allow changing the config therefore have to be added to netdev. +

+ + 
+interface=DIR=/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
+update_config=1
+
+ +

+ Followed are all the network configurations. + For these configuration consult the manpage for wpa_supplicant. + E.g. for WPA2 networks you can use the wpa_passphrase tool. + For eduroam, don't handcraft configs either, use the configuration assistant available here. + This tool will generate a wpa_supplicant.conf if it fails to talk to networkmanager. +

+ +

wpa_gui

+

+ Editing the config file is tedious and error prone. + Moreover, it requires a restart of wpa_supplicant to reinistate the config. + Luckily there are two tools that allow you to do this in-place using either the command line (wpa_cli is not discussed here) and via a GUI(wpa_gui). + If your user is a member of the netdev group you can just start it up. + Note that it resides by default in /usr/sbin. + wpa_gui is a graphical frontend where you can add, remove, diagnose and change wireless networks with almost as much functionality as wpa_cli. +
