- ##############################################################################
- # IMPORTANT
- # linux-wlan-ng is not supported as they have their own configuration program
- # ensure that /etc/conf.d/net has the entry "!iwconfig" in it's modules line
- # Try and use an alternative driver if you need to use this - hostap-driver
- # supports non-usb linux-wlan-ng driven devices

- # HINTS
- ##############################################################################
- # Remember to change eth0 to your wireless interface which may be
- # eth0, eth1, wlan0, ath0 - you get the idea. If you're not sure
- # you can type "iwconfig" at the command prompt and it will tell you which
- # interfaces are wireless.
- # Say that your wireless interface is ath0 - the line
- # #essid_eth0="any"
- # becomes
- # #essid_ath0="any"
- #
- # Remember to change ESSID to your ESSID.
- # Say that your ESSID is My NET - the line
- # #key_ESSID="s:passkey"
- # becomes
- # #key_My_NET="s:passkey"
- # Notice that the space has changed to an underscore - do the same with all
- # characters not in a-z A-Z (english alphabet) 0-9. This only applies to
- # variables and not values.
- #
- # Any ESSID's in values like essid_eth0="My NET" may need to be escaped
- # This means placing the character \ before the character
- # \" need to be escaped for example
- # So if your ESSID is
- # My "\ NET
- # it becomes
- # My \"\\ NET
- # for example
- # #essid_eth0="My\"\\NET"
- #
- # So using the above we can use
- # #dns_domain_My____NET="My\"\\NET"
- # which is an invalid dns domain, but shows the how to use the variable
- # structure
- #
- # As a final note, most users will just need to set the following options
- # key_ESSID1="s:yourkeyhere enc open" # s: means a text key
- # key_ESSID2="aaaa-bbbb-cccc-dd" # no s: means a hex key
- # preferred_aps=( "ESSID1" "ESSID2" )
- #
- # Clear? Good. Now configure your wireless network below

- # SETTINGS
- ##############################################################################
- # Hard code an ESSID to an interface - leave this unset if you wish the driver
- # to scan for available Access Points
- # Set to "any" to connect to any ESSID - the driver picks an Access Point
- # This needs to be done when the driver doesn't support scanning
- # This may work for drivers that don't support scanning but you need automatic
- # AP association
- # I would only set this as a last resort really - use the preferred_aps
- # setting at the bottom of this file
-
- # However, using ad-hoc (without scanning for APs) and master mode
- # do require the ESSID to be set - do this here
- #essid_eth0="any"
-
- # Set the mode of the interface (managed, ad-hoc, master or auto)
- # The default is auto
- # If it's ad-hoc or master you also may need to specify the channel below
- #mode_eth0="auto"
-
- # If managed mode fails, drop to ad-hoc mode with the below ESSID?
- #adhoc_essid_eth0="WLAN"
-
- #Channel can be set (1-14), but defaults to 3 if not set.
- #
- # The below is taken verbatim from the BSD wavelan documentation found at
- # http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/network/wavelan.html
- # There are 14 channels possible; We are told that channels 1-11 are legal for
- # North America, channels 1-13 for most of Europe, channels 10-13 for France,
- # and only channel 14 for Japan. If in doubt, please refer to the documentation
- # that came with your card or access point. Make sure that the channel you
- # select is the same channel your access point (or the other card in an ad-hoc
- # network) is on. The default for cards sold in North America and most of Europe
- # is 3; the default for cards sold in France is 11, and the default for cards
- # sold in Japan is 14.
- #channel_eth0="3"
-
- # Setup any other config commands. This is basically the iwconfig argument
- # without the iwconfig $iface
- #iwconfig_eth0=""
-
- # Set private driver ioctls. This is basically the iwpriv argument without
- # the iwpriv $iface
- #iwpriv_eth0=""
-
- # Seconds to wait before scanning
- # Some drivers need to wait until they have finished "loading"
- # before they can scan - otherwise they error and claim that they cannot scan
- # or resource is unavailable. The default is to wait zero seconds
- #sleep_scan_eth0="1"
-
- # Seconds to wait until associated. The default is to wait 10 seconds
- #sleep_associate_eth0="5"
-
- # By default a successful association in Managed mode sets the MAC
- # address of the AP connected to. However, some drivers (namely
- # the ipw2100) don't set an invalid MAC address when association
- # fails - so we need to check on link quality which some drivers
- # don't report properly either.
- # So if you have connection problems try flipping this setting
- # Valid options are MAC, quality and all - defaults to MAC
- #associate_test_eth0="MAC"
-
- # Some driver/card combinations need to scan in Ad-Hoc mode
- # After scanning, the mode is reset to the one defined above
- #scan_mode_eth0="Ad-Hoc"
-
- # Below you can define private ioctls to run before and after scanning
- # Format is the same as the iwpriv_eth0 above
- # This is needed for the HostAP drivers
- #iwpriv_scan_pre_eth0="host_roaming 2"
- #iwpriv_scan_post_eth0="host_roaming 0"
-
- # Define a WEP key per ESSID or MAC address (of the AP, not your card)
- # The encryption type (open or restricted) must match the
- # encryption type on the Access Point
- # You can't use "any" for an ESSID here
- #key_ESSID="1234-1234-1234-1234-1234-1234-56"
- # or you can use strings. Passphrase IS NOT supported
- # To use a string, prefix it with s:
- # Note - this example also sets the encryption method to open
- # which is regarded as more secure than restricted
- #key_ESSID="s:foobar enc open"
- #key_ESSID="s:foobar enc restricted"
-
- # If you have whitespace in your key, here's how to set it and use other
- # commands like using open encryption.
- #key_ESSID="s:'foo bar' enc open"
-
- # WEP key for the AP with MAC address 001122334455
- #mac_key_001122334455="s:foobar"
-
- # Here are some more examples of keys as some users find others work
- # and some don't where they should all do the same thing
- #key_ESSID="open s:foobar"
- #key_ESSID="open 1234-5678-9012"
- #key_ESSID="s:foobar enc open"
- #key_ESSID="1234-5678-9012 enc open"
-
- # You may want to set muliple keys - here's an example
- # It sets 4 keys on the card and instructs to use key 2 by default
- #key_ESSID="[1] s:passkey1 key [2] s:passkey2 key [3] s:passkey3 key [4] s:passkey4 key [2]"

- # You can also set any of the /etc/conf.d/net variables per MAC address

- # Values are "any", "preferredonly", "forcepreferred", "forcepreferredonly" and "forceany"
- # "any" means it will connect to visible APs in the preferred list and then any
- # other available AP
- # "preferredonly" means it will only connect to visible APs in the preferred list
- # "forcepreferred" means it will forceably connect to APs in order if it does not find
- # them in a scan
- # "forcepreferredonly" means it forceably connects to the APs in order and does not bother
- # to scan
- # "forceany" does the same as forcepreferred + connects to any other available AP
- # Default is "any"
- #associate_order="any"
- #associate_order_eth0="any"

- # Default is "yes"
- #unique_ap="yes"
- #unique_ap_eth0="yes"
-
- # IMPORTANT: preferred_only, blacklisted_aps and unique_ap only work when
- # essid_eth0 is not set and your card is capable of scanning
-
- # NOTE: preferred_aps list ignores blacklisted_aps - so if you have
- # the same ESSID in both, well, you're a bit silly :p
