Hi.

(Sorry for my bad English)

Is it possible to establish connetion to a WiFi from the terminal, and close it again?
Thoughts are that I would write an .sh for a backup system. It will always be the same network to connect to.

So the things im interestet in:

1) Establish the connection
2) Validate the connection is there
3) Close the conncetion again

and just a supplementary question: the .sh files is in the Windows world called a batch file, what is the name i the Linux world?

yeah it totally is, i was searching for how to do this and i found the answer ON THIS FORUM
unfortunately i didn't memorize the links, you'll have to learn to search yourself

I'll never tell you how! HAHAHAHAHA

I mean, uh, WELCOME TO THE FORUM

sorry about him

.sh could be called a shell script

Thanks for that Creamy Goodness. It look like somthing I can use

I tried to search the forum, but without luck... Anyways, thanks...

yeah it actually took me 10 minutes to find that again, the search here doesn't work well. it only likes to show new threads, not old ones
If you write any cool scripts please share it!
