The Wireless Tools is a set of tools allowing to manipulate the Wireless Extensions. They use a textual interface and are rather crude, but aim to support the full Wireless Extension.

- iwconfig manipulate the basic wireless parameters
- iwlist (formerly part of iwspy) allow to list addresses, frequencies, bit-rates...
- iwspy allow to get per node link quality
- iwpriv allow to manipulate the Wireless Extensions specific to a driver (private)

LORCON - Loss Of Radio CONnectivity

The LORCON packet injection library provides a high level interface to transmit IEEE 802.11 packets onto a wireless medium. Written for Linux systems, this architecture simplifies the development of 802.11 packet injection through an abstraction layer, making the development of auditing and assessment tools driver- independent. Using LORCON, developers can write tools that inject packets onto the wireless network without writing driver-specific code, simply by asking the user to identify the driver name they are currently using for a specified interface.

waproamd is a Linux WLAN roaming daemon for IEEE 802.11b cards supported by a driver with the wireless extension API. It may be used for configuring WEP keys according to the WLANs available. It is intended to be used in conjunction with ifplugd, which configures your network automatically whenever an association with an AP succeeded.
