|
|
<para><application>Wicd</application> is a network manager written in
|
|
Python. It simplifies network setup by automatically detecting and
|
|
connecting to wireless and wired networks. Wicd includes support for WPA
|
|
authentication and DHCP configuration. It provides Curses- and GTK-based
|
|
graphical frontends for user-friendly control. An excellent KDE-based
|
|
frontend is also available
