Turn Airport On/Off applescript

[tuteken]

I found a script that turn off the airport card and edited it to turn the airport card on and off. I use this with a quicksilver trigger so that I can have a shortcut key to turn the airport card on and off at will. Can anybody take a look at my script and give me some help to make it better? Thanks

-Display Dialog, asking what to do. Turn the airport card on or off
-Checks to see if Internet Connect is already running, if not the script will start and then turn it off.

very cool, I was searching for such a "tool" some time now. I can't script apple script right now, but I will have a look at this....

Another possibility would be a shell script. Beside the problem of the needed input of the root password, I don't know if the aiport hardware is _really_ turned off!?

sudo ifconfig en1 up

But it should be faster
