I saw in the manual, there a lot of telnet commans for DHCP I tryed: sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode managed freq 2.437G rate 1M frag 256 key open essid 'cassiano-PC_AP' But when I try to run: sudo dhclient wlan0 return: "No DHCPOFFERS received" And I need to do this because my code will connect automatic.
