query wifi status
Hi,
Wondering what the easiest way to determine if you have an active wifi connection from the command line? I am currently grepping for an ip address in the output from ifconfig. Maybe there is an easier way? Thanks! |

python code to turn wifi on and wait until connected

Code:
sp = subprocess.Popen(['lipc-set-prop', 'com.lab126.cmd', 'wirelessEnable', '1'], stdout=subprocess.PIPE) wifi = 'OFF' loop = 0 while loop < 40: Last edited by handyguy; 12-31-2019 at 12:41 PM. |
