Maybe you could explain something to me:
How do you make it auto reconnect when it looses the wireless link? I
have managed to get wpasupplicant to connect to my wireless access
point, and after that I have to do dhclient on the interface to get an
IP. Is there some way to make wpasupplicant do that automatically?
Is there some way to support roaming to pick up any of a list of access
points automatically?
I have very little experience with wireless on linux, but so far it
looks to me to be in serious need of someone combining all the required
tools into a single daemon that can automatically maintain the link for
you.
