# WiFi
Use WiFi without a separate network manager with this simple guide. Needs "_dhcpcd_" (or "_dhcpclient_"), "_wpa\_supplicant_", "_iproute2_" and wifi firmware (like "_iwlwifi_").
The "_\<DEVICE_NAME>_" can be either "_wlp3s0_" or "_wlan0_". Change accordingly the following commands to suit your needs.
* Create the configuration file (as "_root_", not "_sudo_"):
`wpa_passphrase <NETWORK_NAME> <PASSWORD> > /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf`
* Delete non hashed password from /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
* Each time you need to connect type the following command (as "_root_" or with "_sudo_"):
`ip link set wlan0 down`
`ip link set wlan0 up`
`wpa_supplicant -B -iwlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -Dwext`
`dhcpcd wlan0`
`ip link set <DEVICE_NAME> down`
`ip link set <DEVICE_NAME> up`
`wpa_supplicant -B -i<DEVICE_NAME> -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -Dwext`
`dhcpcd <DEVICE_NAME>`
You can save the last step in a script.
