# http://localhost.ruhr.de/~stefan/interfaces/
#
# Wifichoice selects the proper configuration profile for your WLAN
# interface by scanning for the right environment.
# To achieve this, it can either scan for the correct access point
# or ESSID, or try to associate with the configured network.
#
# Configuration is done in a central way via /etc/network/interfaces:
#
# mapping wlan0
#    script /usr/local/sbin/ifichoice.sh
#    map default: none
#    map timeout: 2
#
# Timeout is the number of seconds the script waits after a test
# association for the device to settle, and default is the profile
# that shoud be loaded is if no known surrounding is detected.
#
# The test parameters are defined in the profiles themselves:
#
# iface home inet dhcp
#    wireless yes
#    wireless_mode managed
#    wireless_key open 1234567890ABCDEF1234567890
#    wireless_essid mywifinet
#    wifichoice ap 00:12:34:56:78:9A
#
# Since your access point does not not broadcast its ESSID,
# and/or your card does not support "iwlist scan", wifichoice tries to
# associate with the network, using the supplied config, and then checks
# whether the network is managed by the right access point.
#
# If you can identify the network by its broadcasted ESSID or AP, you can
# also try to scan for it. Just add a line like this to your profile:
#
# wifichoice scan essid mywifinet
#
# Wifichoice then invokes a scan for neighbouring access points, and
# identifies those that serve the requested ESSID. It is also possible
# to scan for a specific access point address, this is useful if the AP
# does not transmit its ESSID:
#
# wifichoice scan ap 00:12:34:56:78:9A
