# AUTORUN WIFI CONNECT when disconnected IMMEDIATELY after disconnect, and every 30 seconds thereafter.
# This project is used (for me personally) for RDP access on a LAN PC RIG. Using this script, i can make sure
# my wifi will always be attempting to reconnected immediately and fast without connection issues.
# Works great... but adaptor, if it gets disabled will NOT re-enable. Couldn't get it to do that. oh well...
# just don't disable the adaptor and life is good :)
# SCRIPT #1/2
# SCRIPT #1 = Python Script, Main script, this one... below.
# SCRIPT #2 = Windows Batch script, +ADMIN-Privelages + Execute script on boot
# (link to script #2) https://pastebin.com/7NuczV3p
#TUTORIAL:
# INSTALL PYTHON, add to PATH (environment path in windows)
# save script to pc, where you save it, will be needed for script 2 to locate script to autorun... .bat ;)
