Re: [Gumstix-users] Verdex and ad-hoc wifi

[David W. <dw...@da...>]

Thanks, Matt,

I finally managed to get back to this issue tonight, and I now have  
my iPhone pointed at my AJAX UI!

Your documentation is awesome, thanks also for that: succinct,  
direct, correct, I learned a lot from it.


Thanks again.




Now of course I have one more issue: sometimes I want to boot ad-hoc,  
sometimes I want to boot DHCP client to my WEP network at home,  
sometimes to the one at my client's base, so I can run things like  
ipkg. Basically, is there a configuration way to try each of the DHCP  
nets and boot up the Ad-hoc network if none of them are present? Is  
this something I could do in cron perhaps? write a little perl script  
that tests for wlan0 being up and with an assigned IP or not? I have  
perl on the system now, are there any particular modules aimed at  
easing this kind of task?


It's a computer. Nothing takes "five minutes". It never stops.
