Description

Rfkill is a Linux command line utility that is used to control the radio-frequency (RF) kill switch on a device. It is used to enable or disable the wireless network adapter on a computer, allowing users to quickly switch off their wireless network connection. Rfkill works by sending a signal to the device to either enable or disable the wireless network adapter. This makes it an invaluable tool for troubleshooting wireless network connection problems and protecting privacy. Rfkill can also be used to check the status of the wireless network adapter and to list all available wireless networks.
