• nmcli
• iw
• rofi ( I may end up expanding compatibility to dmenu )
• bash ( but you probably already knew that )

• lemonbar (or some other bar, i.e. tint2)
• openbox/i3/etc.

• make sure you have all the dependencies installed

• run the following commands in your terminal. Replace uppercase variables with personal choice

cd DESIRED_DIRECTORY
git clone https://github.com/zbaylin/rofi-wifi-menu.git
cd rofi-wifi-menu
bash "./rofi-wifi-menu.sh"

rofi-wifi-menu has an example configuration file in the repository. It will run without it, but will warn you if it does not exist.

To configure rofi-wifi-menu, first cd into the directory it is installed into. Then edit the file config.example. It should contain the following variables:

• position
• y-offset
• x-offset
• fields

position can be configured where the number represents the position on this screen in this way

y-offset is measured in pixels. A positive value moves the window downward, while a negative value moves it upward.

x-offset is measured in pixels. A positive value move the window rightward, while a negative value moves it leftward.

fields choose what is displayed by the menu. The available fields are as follows:

NAME,SSID,SSID-HEX,BSSID,MODE,CHAN,FREQ,RATE,SIGNAL,BARS,SECURITY,WPA-FLAGS,RSN-FLAGS,DEVICE,ACTIVE,IN-USE,DBUS-PATH

✔️ Add ability to manually specify SSID

✔️ Add ability to configure the script externally

✔️ Use rofi highlighting

❌ Add more forms of security (PEAP, etc.)

❌ Remove duplicate APs
