WiFi Radar is a nifty little GUI program that lets you switch wireless networks with ease.

## Installation

Install the wifi-radar package.

## Configuration

The project's documention gives a good overview for the user interface.

wifi-radar needs to be run with administrative privileges. Edit `/etc/sudoers` using the visudo command and add:

    yourusername     ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/wifi-radar

Then, run wifi-radar from your application menu to view the available networks or to configure your setup.

For configuration file options, see the project's manual.

Tip:

- You may edit `/etc/conf.d/wifi-radar` to set a particular network interface that you want to use.
- Some users have had to set `ifup required` to `ON` in order for WiFi Radar to work properly.
