This script disconnects and connects to a Wi-Fi network in a loop for a specified duration. (!) You may need elevation (Run as administrator) privileges.
Clone this repository to your local machine using the following command:
git clone <repository-url>
Change your current working directory to the root of the cloned repository:
cd <repository-directory>
Run the following command to create a new virtual environment named myvenv
:
python -m venv myvenv
This will create a new directory called myvenv
in your project directory, containing all the necessary files for a virtual environment.
Activate the virtual environment using one of the following commands based on your operating system:
On Windows:
myvenv\Scripts\activate
On macOS and Linux:
source myvenv/bin/activate
Once activated, you will see (myvenv)
in your command prompt, indicating that you are working within the virtual environment.
With the virtual environment active, install the required dependencies listed in the requirements.txt
file:
pip install -r requirements.txt
This will ensure that all the necessary packages are installed within the virtual environment.
Now that the virtual environment is set up and the required dependencies are installed, you can run the main.py
script using the following command:
python main.py -h
Example:
python main.py --ssid <SSID_WIFI> --run_dur 300 --disc_dur 3 --conn_dur 240
That will do:
- Will run the script for SSID_WIFI for 300 seconds ~ 5 minutes ( run_dur ) and after 3 seconds ( disc_dur ) it will disconnect and reconnect automatically, it will wait for 240 seconds ~ 4 minutes ( conn_dur ) and that it will repeat this for run_dur.
Now that the virtual environment is set up and the required dependencies are installed, you can run the showSSID.py
script using the following command:
python showSSID.py
- This python script will show you in console as print output the SSID WiFi Name based on your connected WiFi.
The script will now be executed within the virtual environment, utilizing the installed dependencies.
Once you have finished running the script and no longer need the virtual environment, you can deactivate it using the following command:
deactivate
This will return you to your system's default Python environment.
Thanks go to these wonderful people:
