The Wireless Tools are a set of generic tools allowing to setup and monitor Wireless LAN devices through the Wireless Extension interface. This interface is available currently only under Linux (2.0.x upward) and supports both pre-802.11 features and 802.11 compliant features. It is accompanied by the Linux Wireless LAN Howto, the most exhaustive ressource for Wireless LAN on the net and includes all you need to setup any Wireless LAN under Linux.
