wifiroamd - Automatic WiFi connection (re)establishment daemon
Description:
WiFiRoamd is a program that monitors your wireless device to keep it connected to a good access point. It will scan looking for a known AP, or will try the AP with the strongest un-encrypted signal. If a script is found for the specific AP ESSID or MAC address is found, that script is run. Otherwise, a "default" script is run. After that script is run, scripts in the "up.d" directory are run. These implement extra functionality such as DHCP, ESSID "pinning" (where it explicitly does "iwconfig $DEVICE essid $ESSID", so that you don't accidentally wander to another AP) and other local things such as restarting OpenVPN, etc.
