I'm signed into my Linux laptop but I forgot my Wi-fi password so I can't connect other devices. Can I use the command line to enumerate the Wi-fi profiles and passwords for each?

Output

Yes, you can use the `nmcli` command to enumerate the Wi-Fi profiles and passwords for each. Here's how: 1. Open a terminal window. 2. Run the following command:

1
nmcli -t -f SSID,SECURITY,PSK connection show
This command will output a list of all the Wi-Fi profiles that are stored on your computer. The `SSID` column will show the name of the Wi-Fi network, the `SECURITY` column will show the type of security used by the network, and the `PSK` column will show the password for the network. If the `PSK` column is empty, then the network is not password-protected. Note: This command will only show the passwords for the Wi-Fi networks that you have previously connected to. If you have not connected to a Wi-Fi network before, then the `PSK` column will be empty.

Output

Yes, you can use the following steps: 1. Open the terminal by pressing `Ctrl` + `Alt` + `T`. 2. Run the following command to list all Wi-Fi profiles:

1
nmcli -f name,ssid connection show
3. To view the password for a specific Wi-Fi profile, run the following command:
1
nmcli -p security connection show <profile-name>
Replace `<profile-name>` with the name of the Wi-Fi profile you want to view the password for. For example, to view the password for the "my-home-wifi" profile, you would run the following command:
1
nmcli -p security connection show "my-home-wifi"
The output of the command will include the password for the Wi-Fi profile.

Output

**Method 1: Using nmcli** 1. Open a terminal and run the following command to list all saved Wi-Fi profiles:

1
2
   sudo nmcli dev wifi list
   
2. Find the name of the Wi-Fi profile you want to retrieve the password for. 3. Run the following command to display the password for the selected profile:
1
2
   sudo nmcli -p security show wifi-security "$PROFILE_NAME"
   
Replace `$PROFILE_NAME` with the actual profile name. **Method 2: Using iwconfig** 1. Run the following command to list all available Wi-Fi networks:
1
2
   sudo iwconfig
   
2. Locate the network you want to retrieve the password for and note the ESSID (network name). 3. Run the following command to display the password for the selected network:
1
2
   sudo iwconfig wlan0 key [ESSID]
   
Replace `wlan0` with the name of your wireless interface and `[ESSID]` with the actual network name. **Note:** * You will be prompted to enter your administrative password for these commands. * The password will be displayed in plain text in the terminal window. * For security reasons, consider changing your Wi-Fi password after retrieving it using these methods.

Output

Yes, you can use the command line to enumerate the Wi-Fi profiles and passwords for each saved network on your Linux laptop. Here's how: 1. Open a terminal window. 2. Run the following command to list all saved Wi-Fi profiles:

1
nmcli -f NAME,SSID,SAVED dev wifi list
This command will output a list of all saved Wi-Fi profiles, along with their SSIDs and whether they are saved or not. 3. To view the password for a specific Wi-Fi profile, run the following command, replacing "your_ssid" with the SSID of the profile you want to view:
1
nmcli -p -g SSID,SECURITY,PSK wifi show "your_ssid"
This command will output the SSID, security type, and password (PSK) for the specified Wi-Fi profile. Note that the password will be displayed in plain text, so be sure to take precautions to protect your privacy.

Output

**Method 1: iwconfig**

1
sudo iwconfig
This command will list the active Wi-Fi interfaces on your computer. Look for the interface that you're having trouble connecting to. It's often named `wlp3s0` or `wlan0`. Once you have identified the interface, run:
1
sudo iwlist wlan0 scan | grep ESSID
This command will display the list of SSIDs (Wi-Fi network names) of all the available Wi-Fi networks. **Method 2: NetworkManager** If you have NetworkManager installed, you can use the following command:
1
nmcli dev wifi list
This command will display a list of all the known Wi-Fi networks along with their SSIDs, signal strengths, and security settings. **Method 3: Root Access** If you have root access, you can use the following command to view the Wi-Fi passwords for all the known networks:
1
sudo cat /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/*.nmconnection | grep psk=
**Note:** * Be sure to replace `wlan0` in the command above with the correct interface name. * If the `psk=` field is empty, the network is using an unsecured connection or you may need to install the `wpa_supplicant` package and restart the NetworkManager service.
