Application that workarounds issues that prevent NetworkManager from reconnecting to a WiFi network

How it works

At start the application checks which WiFi network is currently activated. If no network is yet activated it awaits for one to be activated.

Then it enters a loop that checks each minute whether the detected WiFi network is still connected.

If connectivity to the network is no longer available, the application waits another minute, checks again and if the connection is still not established it triggers activation.

If there is no change after one more minute the application restarts the NetworkManager service. If restarting NetworkManager does not help, the application considers the network unavailable and awaits to it to become available again.

If during the checks the device switches to another WiFi network the applications detects this and operates on top of it.
