Assuming the driver is loaded and your network interface shows up. For
example,
# ifconfig
The above command would list active interfaces and the wireless
interface would show up as eth1.
# iwconfig eth1 scan
Will show all the available SSIDs
# iwconfig eth1 essid "<SSID>"
Replace <SSID> with the SSID that you wish to connect to.
# iwconfig
The above would show the details about your wireless interface and can
be determined if your wireless interface is actually associated to the
Access Poing. Once successfully, associated (you will be able to see the
hardware ID for AP).
# dhclient eth1
The above is to obtain the DHCP IP address.

Hi,
I have a Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5418 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless
PCI Express Adapter (rev 01) wireless card that I am using with the
madwifi drivers. Normally I would just use NetworkManager to connect to
my access points but I was wondering if someone could tell me how to
connect without having to use NetworkManager.
Thanks,
Greg
