Connect To Stealthed Wifi With Space In The Ssid?
« on: July 18, 2006, 02:10:07 pm »
I need to connect my Zaurus to a wireless access point with stealth and an access name with a space in it.  The wifi applet wont let me type space - any idea?

Edit it in the command line.  Or the easy way, rename the access point.
What's this button do??

Which file do I edit in the command line?

One of the files in /home/zaurus/Applications/Network/modules/ .  They are named WLAN0.conf, WLAN1.conf....   Depending on how many wifi networks you can access.  You'll just have to check them to see which one you want to edit.
