我也得到这个错误

You can try to delete [s:] after the 53rd line key.

Hi pro,
This is very interesting code.
If, I want to connecting wifi with python code into windows operating system, Can you help me?

I have tried deleting s: in front of key at 53rd line. But it is yet giving "/bin/sh: 1: iwconfigwlan0essidvivo-s1keyallahakbar: not found" error. Moreover, it also gives "Error for wireless request "Set ESSID" (8B1A) :". Kindly reply how to solve it

@abdulwahabmalak, @nguyentranphucbao - The issue is likely that you aren't trying to connect to a WEP network you're attempting to connect to a WPA network. This script using iwlist and iwconfig which only support WEP. You can modify this script to work by doing something like this on line 53:

    os.popen("wpa_passphrase '" + network + "' '" + tpass + "' > wpa.conf")
    connectstatus = os.popen("wpa_supplicant -iwlan0 -c/root/wpa.conf -B")

This will require that you install WPA supplicant using:
sudo apt install wpasupplicant

You should be able to leave line 51 seeing as this example is if there isn't a passphrase (i.e. open network)

Hope this helps!
Cheers,
Dana
