## Basic Linux WiFi/WPA2 configuration
These are helpful if you don't have network-manager or whatever installed, eg
if you are on a headless computer with no wired ethernet.
Basics with `iw` and `ip`. These tools can't do WPA2 on their own:
iw dev
ip link set wlp3s0 up
iw wlp3s0 link
iw wlp3s0 scan
iw wlp3s0 scan | grep WSSID
Do WPA2 setup and DHCP:
wpa_passphrase W.A.S.T.E. > /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-bootsrap.conf
# enter password
wpa_supplicant -D wext -i wlp3s0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-bootsrap.conf
# leave running in a terminal
dhclient wlp3s0
