Hi,
I have cable internet but yesterday it was down so I hooked up a wifi antenna that I have and got on to check my email via a local wifi that I can use.
In the SNS set up it allows you to delete the internet configurations via the panel - if you have 2 settings they will be numbered 1 and 2. Yesterday when I added the wifi I had the wifi setting and the cable setting. 1 and 2 respectively.
A couple of times yesterday I even deleted each of these settings by mistake by clicking on the buttons 1 or 2 and that deletes them. No problem.
Today, though, I can't delete wifi (setting 1 right now) though I can delete setting 2 (cable) no problem.
On top of that, even if I unplug the wifi, SNS will not jump to use the 2nd setting for cable - it just says it can't access any internet connection.
I have had to delete the cable configuration (number 2) and everytime I've gone online start from scratch creating a connection via SNS.
Is there a way to try deleting this setting on the control panel or a file I can delete somewhere that will get rid of the wifi settings on SNS?.
Thanks.
SNS not connecting to cable can't delete wifi settings
I found a file (aptly named
Simple_Network_Setup and in that a connections file that had the wireless info along with the cable connection info.
I deleted the wireless (wlan) and so now it does not appear in the Barry's Simple Network Setup menu.
Wonderful.
New Question though - there's another folder called -
wpa_supplicant.conf
which I have figured is a 'configure' file ??
In this file there is this code:
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ap_scan=1
network={
ssid="WTA Public"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
psk=e13731. . . (bunch of numbers)
}
Is it ok to delete this file? I figure it's the set up for the wifi and just taking out the information from the config folder might have just taken wifi off the menu when what I want is for it to be forgotten all together - I mean deleted.
Thanks for any advice. I tend to mess things up quite easily deleting stuff so I wanted to check that it's ok.
