Wifi-Profiles is a direct way to connect using saved profiles. Allows deleting of profiles.

Wifi-Eduroam is specifically for 2 phase security on university eduroam AP.

Wifi-Scanner uses selected interface to continuously scan available APs. Allows connection and profile creation.

Wifi-Scanner-2 uses selected interfaces (upto eight) to scan for APs and display results in tabs per interface. Allows connection and profile creation.

I have two menu entries in the Internet category StemsWlan and StemsWlan+, it is right, I ask because SteamsWlan+ appears to be a smaller version of SteamsWlan.
With SteamsWlan+ once I entered values ​​for the connection to the router it appears to connect but when I try to browse on the web, I'm not able to do it, as if I were not connected.
With SteamsWlan when it start changes immediately the MAC address of wifi card, unfortunately I set the router to consent the connection only to some MAC address, accordingly I suggest to let the user decide whether to change the MAC address. Once I entered the values ​​to connect to the router and ticked the save option I pressed OK and I was able to surf on internet successfully but when I started again SteamsWlan I realized that he had not saved the values of the previous session.
When I pass the mouse over the tray-icon both tools show the ip value of my ethernet connection instead of the wifi connection.
When I right-click on the icon tray and select disconnect nothing happens and I still stay connected.

thanks

It does save values but not the mac address, i will change that. I will change the initial mac changer too ( but that is how I want it to work by default).

Ethernet 1 disconnect does work here!

The tray does not receive a stream of changing values, yet, the values it receives are just snapshots.

What system are you running on? and what other network apps are running?

On my system I also have iptables, dnsmasq, wkanmaker, routermaker and shareInternet installed!

However everything is working as expected on pupjibaro jessie!

Could you post a screen shot of the right menu in operation?

Hello Stemsee. Here is a gettext version of the scripts in your pet, including a translation to Spanish.

[stemsee]

Thanks @ vimcz

It is a lesson for me!

I have decided to simplify Wifi-Connect all into one script.

Cheers @ corvus
Nice desktop!

[stemsee]

hi @ vicmz

Here is updated (final) pet. Ready for gettexting. Great if you gettext them.
Scripts renamed to Wifi-Connect, no longer stemsewlan connect, and can be run in terminal with wifi-connect, or wifi-connect2. Hotspot and ediwifi improved and gettext ready. All provide tray icon and menu.

HotSpot requires additional packages: dnsmasq iptables shareInternet routermaker and wlanmaker, but may work without them depending on your setup!

@corvus
The reason the re-connect and disconnect didn't work is because adding the icon in the menu.

Well done Stemsee, tried Wifi-Connect tool, Connect, Disconnect, Re-Connect and Open Browser work without issues. Successfully set as default.

Well here is a link for shareInternet-2.2.4.pet and a how to by saintless on sharing over ethernet between two PCs.
http://puppylinux.info/topic/shareinternet-224pet

After you install shareInternet (which you will need for wireless sharing I think) then run 'hotspot', shareInternet should be in /root/my-applications/ for my script to use it automatically.

In hotspot choose 'other' this is for shareInternet AppRun, the others use wlanmaker and routermaker (dnsmasq and iptables required for these two (probably)).

Then connect your devices, modiles, tablets etc ... may need to set static ip (depends on devices!)

[corvus]

Thanks Stemsee with shareInternet I solved my problem.
Thank you so much for the time that you gave me, and for your work.

[stemsee]

That's ok corvus!

Other utils include hostapd and bridgeutils. I would like to find out the minimum requirements to get wlan0 to wlan1 sharing for hotspot.

[stemsee]

Got icons showing in the tray menu!

wifi-connect.pet tray icons beta

[corvus]

Hi Stemsee, as you can see from the screenshot below the icons work, I also successfully tested "Ethernet 1" and "Ethernet 1 Disconnect" to connect and disconnect from my second computer.
Bye.
