2010-06-16 20:48:17 Ron Asor description It might have been known but, I'll sum it up to you now. After gaining a connection to a wireless ap, its all nice and shiny (from startup as example) But, After you disconnect from a specific network the network card some sort of freeze, and wont let you connect to other ap's even to the last one youv'e been connected to. The method i've came across is by sudo ifconfig wlan0 down, as I thought of this and I wanted to know if its possible to bind that command to the "disconnect all" and "refresh" buttons on the GUI, obviously when you do one of those it should reset the card and start the scan from point 0 because thats the main way it works at the moment. so Is it possible to edit the configs of it or anyone have any more suggestions about it? because running ifconfig from the terminal after reconnecting to different networks is kinda tedious... if any more info is needed i'll post it up, just ask. oh, and most likely. it just somewhat of hangs at the "obtaining ip address" line, so maybe its something releated to the dhclient wrappings. Thanks a lot. It might have been known but, I'll sum it up to you now.
