# Usage:
# chmod +x snic.sh
# and then
# Wired network interface, example:
# snic.sh eth0 router // Switch eth0 to router mode
# snic.sh eth0 client // Switch eth0 to client mode
# snic.sh wlan0 router wireless // Switch wlan0 to router (Wi-Fi hotspot) mode
# snic.sh wlan0 client wireless // Switch wlan0 to client mode
# snic.sh <interface> <mode> <wireless (optional)>
# <wireless (optional)> should be used only for wireless interfaces!
