Why do we need to check the interface name? #162

Closed eyalroz closed 2 years ago

eyalroz commented 2 years ago

The installation instructions in the README require us to determine the name of the wifi adapter interface.

  1. Why?
  2. How would we have this name before the driver is already installed and working?

I see. Please consider clarifying this in the README itself, so that other people don't get confused and try to do something with the interface name even if they don't need to.

Otherwise - thank you so much for writing this driver!
