= What is it =

w32g is a dbus script to toggle 2g/3g when connected/disconnected to wifi.

If there's a call, it will delay the toggling.

= Configuration =

The configuration documentation is at the beginning w32g.conf. You can copy it to /home/user/.w32g.conf and modify it :

[w32g]
  
  ### the comment reflect the default configuration
  ### true is true (case insensitive), everything else is false
  
  ### the command used to test the wifi connection before downgrading to 2g
  ### if you don't want to do test just delete after =
  # connection_test = sudo /bin/ping -c 1 www.google.com
  
  ### notification message when going to 3g
  # message_on_idle = 3G cellular mode set
  ### notification message when going to 2g
  # message_on_connected = 2G (GSM) cellular mode set
  
  ### shall we go back to 3g when wlan disconnect ?
  #### if you want to have false just delete after =
  # change_on_idle = true
  ### shall we go back to dual or 3g ?
  # change_to_dual = true
  
  ### if wait_on_call is a integer greater than 0, the program will wait
  ### all this time to toggle to 2g/3g. After this time it will exit
  ### without toggling.
  ### if wait_on_call is 0 or lesser, w32g will exit without toggling
  # wait_on_call = 90
  
  ### if you want go to 2g only when connected to some wlan you can add their wlan id here
  ### you can find the wlan id using the command 
  ### gconftool-2 -R /system/osso/connectivity/IAP
  ### For example :
  ### wifi = 91f493fb-7c89-4fc6-ac2c-b822923dde45 9ee5dd55-9a32-4ee9-9131-c464ad31d907
  # wifi =

= Script =

And you must copy the program to /home/user/bin/w32g and follow instruction below :

#!/usr/bin/python
  
  # You need to install dbus-scripts (BE CAREFUL, it's a devel package)
  # 
  # as root you need to create a file /etc/sudoers.d/w32g
  # with this line :
  #   user ALL = NOPASSWD: /bin/ping
  # and run the command update-sudoers because only root can use ping
  # 
  # always as root and you need to create another file
  # /etc/dbus-scripts/w32g with the following line : 
  #
  #   /home/user/bin/w32g * * com.nokia.icd status_changed * WLAN_INFRA *
  #
  # and copy this script in /home/user/bin/w32g
