Note that most of these items should not be changed while the device is in a connected state to a network.
iwconfig commands take the following structure:
|
iwconfig |
[ ssid <name> ][ mode <idle|managed|adhoc> ] [ channel <channel list|all> ] [ power <reenable|disable|unicast|all> ] [ domain <name> ] [ rts <length> ] [ scan ] [ hibernate ] [ wakeup ] |
Note: iwconfig with no options will display wireless status.
|
ssid |
|
|
name |
|
mode |
|
|
idle |
Forces the MRF24WB0M / MRF24WG0M to disconnect from any currently connected network (adhoc or infrastructure). |
|
managed |
The MRF24WB0M / MRF24WG0M will connect to the SSID in infrastructure mode. Note that all the network parameters must be correct before this command is called. |
|
adhoc |
The MRF24WB0M / MRF24WG0M will connect to the SSID in adhoc mode. Note that all the network parameters must be correct before this command is called. |
|
channel |
|
|
channel list |
A comma separated list of all the channels to scan. |
|
all |
Sets the MRF24WB0M / MRF24WG0M to scan all channels in the given regulatory domain. |
|
power |
|
|
reenable / all |
Enables all power saving features (PS_POLL) of the MRF24WB0M / MRF24WG0M. MRF24WB0M / MRF24WG0M will wake up to check for all types of traffic (unicast, multicast, and broadcast). |
|
disable |
Disables any power savings features. The MRF24WB0M / MRF24WG0M will always be in an active power state. |
|
unicast |
The MRF24WB0M / MRF24WG0M will be in it's deepest sleep state, only waking up at periodic intervals to check for unicast data. The MRF24WB0M / MRF24WG0M will not wake up on the DTIM period for broadcast or multicast traffic. |
|
domain |
|
|
fcc |
United States channels 1-11. |
|
ic |
Canada channels 1-11. Applicable for MRF24WB0M only. |
|
etsi |
European channels 1-13. |
|
spain |
Spanish channels 10-11. Applicable for MRF24WB0M only. |
|
france |
French channels 10-13. Applicable for MRF24WB0M only. |
|
japan |
Japanese channel 1-14. Applicable for MRF24WG0M only. |
|
japana |
Japanese channel 14. Applicable for MRF24WB0M only. |
|
japanb |
Japanese channels 1-11. Applicable for MRF24WB0M only. |
|
rts |
|
|
length |
Set the requested number of bytes to send. Default max is 2347. |
|
scan |
|
|
|
Instructs the MRF24WB0M / MRF24WG0M to perform an active site scan. Scan results will be displayed to the output terminal. |
|
hibernate |
|
|
|
Turns off LDO of the MRF24W module, which is equivalent to removing power to the MRF24WB0M / MRF24WG0M. Has the same effect of resetting MRF24WB0M / MRF24WG0M. MRF24W state is not maintained when transitioning to hibernate mode. |
|
wakeup |
|
|
|
Restores power to the MRF24WB0M / MRF24WG0M and reconnects. |
Note: scan is only supported by the WiFi EZConfig demo.
