I am using CentOS 6, trying desperately to get Wifi working via a ifcfg-wlan0
file and fudging with /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
. I do not have an X server, so I do not want to use the GUI tools.
How can I configure NetworkManager to have WPA2-PSK WiFi on wlan0 with an ESSID of inet_bridge
. Ethernet works fine, so I know that my setup isn't completely messed up. Must be done at the command line or with vim.
My wpa_supplicant.conf:
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=wheel
network={
ssid="inet_bridge"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
proto=WPA RSN
pairwise=CCMP
group=CCMP
psk="thisIsMyAsciiPassword"
}
My ifcfg-wlan0:
DEVICE=wlan0
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
IPADDR=192.168.0.253
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
DNS1=192.168.0.99
HWADDR=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
TYPE=Wireless
