Connecting to WiFi
 
All is fine when only one cell appears in the scan results, but when more appear, how do I connect to one of them, from a CLI? not using any GUI wireless applcation

thanks

Isnt that like "iwconfig ap [MAC_address_or_name]"?

you do this:

iwconfig eth1 essid "name of network"
dhclient eth1

this is assuming that the interface is up. the eth1 is whatever the name of your wireless interface is.

and of course all of this is assuming that you have wirelelss-tools installed
