Establish a Wireless Connection

This section will show how to establish a wifi connection to the wireles network. Note that directly connecting will implicitly create a connection (that can be seen with “nmcli c”). The naming of such will follow “SSID N” pattern, where N is a number.

First, determine the name of the WiFi interface:

$ nmcli d
DEVICE             TYPE      STATE         CONNECTION
...
wlan0              wifi      disconnected     --
