How to debug wifi MADWIFI code 731

OK, I had some success. I decided to give up the Netgear WG102 access point for now. Instead I tried to securely connect to my Linksys wireless ROUTER from walmart. I set up a WEP pbuttword and and made a key and used that.

It seems to have worked, everything is fine, here's my script. I wonder why the same thing did not work with my WG102 access point. Note that I do not use DHCP.

#!-bin-sh -x

if scan-wifi grep susliki ; then # check if I am near home, not # waste time otherwise ifconfig ath1 down ifconfig wifi1 down

iwconfig ath1 essid susliki

sleep 1

iwconfig ath1 key 123456789ABCD

#iwconfig ath1 ap off

sleep 1

iwconfig ath1 ap 00:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX

iwconfig ath1 channel 6

sleep 1

ifconfig ath1 up iwconfig ath1 txpower 100mW iwconfig ath1 rate 54M auto

sleep 3

ifconfig ath1 192.168.1.91 ifconfig wifi1 192.168.1.92 iwconfig ath1

sleep 2

route del default route del -net 192.168.1.0-24 wifi1 route add -net default gw 192.168.1.1 ath1

ping -c 2 manifold else echo I am not at home. exit 1 fi
