# Essential Scripts

Shell Scripting Made Easy

This repository contains a collection of essential scripts to automate various tasks and improve productivity.

## Features

## Scripts Included

1. **Wi-Fi Auto-Login Script**
- Automates the process of logging into captive portals.
- Connects to specified Wi-Fi networks and submits credentials.
- **Works for both Linux and macOS** using the same script (`vit-wifi-login.sh`).
- For **Windows**, a separate PowerShell script is available (`vit-wifi-login-windows.ps1`).

## Requirements

1. **Linux System** with necessary tools installed.
- `nmcli` for network management.
- `curl` for web requests.

2. **Windows**:
- PowerShell 5.1 or later.

## Setup Instructions

### Step 1: Clone or Download the Repository

Clone this repository or download the scripts to your local machine.

```bash
git clone https://github.com/PacemakerX/essential-shell-scripts.git
cd essential-shell-scripts
```

### Step 2: Configure the Scripts

Edit the configuration files to suit your needs. Each script has its own configuration file with detailed instructions.

#### For Linux/macOS:

1. **Make the script executable**:

```bash
chmod +x login_vit_wifi.sh
```

2. **Run the script**:
```bash
./login_vit_wifi.sh
```

#### For Windows:

1. **Open PowerShell as Administrator**:

- Press `Win + X` and select **Windows PowerShell (Admin)** or **Command Prompt (Admin)**.

2. **Allow script execution** (if not already enabled):

- Run the following command to allow scripts to be executed in PowerShell:
```powershell
Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser
```

3. **Run the script**:

- Execute the script:
```powershell
.\vit-wifi-login-windows.ps1
```

The script will attempt to connect to the specified Wi-Fi network (e.g., `G-VIT`) and automatically log in to the captive portal.

**Note**: Ensure you have an active internet connection and that your Wi-Fi network is accessible.
