how to configure wifi from the command line

[Kindleschokolade]

Hello,
on my jailbroken PW2 I need to change the login credentials for a local WIFI network.
Unfortunately I do not have access to the touchscreen.
But I can connect via ssh over usb thanks to the jailbreak.

How can I proceed from there to setup the WIFi login?

Thanks a lot!

Check this KUAL extension i made some time ago, maybe you can find some useful information in the script

Thanks, I will try.

Thanks again. Worked flawlessly:
For future reference:

wpa_cli -iwlan0 set_network 0 auth_alg OPEN
wpa_cli -iwlan0 set_network 0 key_mgmt WPA-PSK
wpa_cli -iwlan0 set_network 0 psk '"secret code"'
wpa_cli -iwlan0 set_network 0 proto RSN
wpa_cli -iwlan0 set_network 0 mode 0
wpa_cli -iwlan0 set_network 0 ssid '"Network Name"'
wpa_cli -iwlan0 select_network 0
wpa_cli -iwlan0 enable_network 0
wpa_cli -iwlan0 reassociate
wpa_cli -iwlan0 status
iw wlan0 link

Edit / Update:
Is there a way to save this manually connected wifi network so the kindle will always connect to it?
I found wifid.conf and wifilocker.db in /var/local/system/ but these files are not too helpful it seems.

Hello,
Do you know how to open a document without touching the screen on a KT? I don't have access to my touchscreen either.

After decompiling `wifid`, I recovered the encryption scheme used for `wifid.conf`.

AES-CFB-128 with the reverse device_serial_number. (you can find at Settings - Device Option - Device Info)


Here is the python code:

```
# pip install pycryptodome
from Crypto.Cipher import AES

# cat /proc/usid
dsn = "G0016T0292530AGM"
key = dsn[::-1].encode() # reverse
iv = key

# /var/local/system/wifid.conf
with open("wifid.conf", "rb") as f:
data = f.read()

ciphertext = data[7:] # skip "AES+128"

cipher = AES.new(key, AES.MODE_CFB, iv=iv, segment_size=128)
plaintext = cipher.decrypt(ciphertext)

print(plaintext.decode("utf-8", errors="replace"))
```
