In this case, our Yeahhub wireless password is “ 12345678“. Now we’ll generate a configuration file for wpa_supplicant that contains the pre-shared key (password) for the WiFi networkĬommand: wpa_passphrase Yeahhub > /etc/wpa_nf In below screen, as you can see that the SSID name is “ Yeahhub” which we need to connect and the security protocol is RSN, also commonly referred to as WPA2 Protocol.

It supports all new drivers that have been added to the kernel recently. Iw is a new nl80211 based CLI configuration utility for wireless devices.
