Network Sledgehammer

Because Wi-Fi should just f%@#ing work

Synopsis

Network Sledgehammer is a networking tool which automates reconnecting to a Wi-Fi access point upon detecting a disconnection. It's a last resort application for when you have no other choice (Bad network adapter, no up-to-date drivers, etc) and need a nearly constant Internet connection.

The application is intuitive to use. Just select a Wi-Fi network, an address to try to ping (e.g. https://www.google.com), and a frequency to ping. Let it run in the background. Easy.

Compilation Instruction

This project uses the Costura.Fody package to embed resources into the final executable (like ManagedWifi.dll...). To install this, Open the project in Visual Studio, then go to Tools -> NuGet Package Manager -> Package Manager Console. Type in the following command:

Install-Package Costura.Fody

Afterwards, just compile the project and it'll run. Easy.

External Dependencies (ManagedWifi)

This project includes the source code of managedwifi, as the NuGet version has a bug that crashes the program upon connection to an access point. This means you don't need to add an additional NuGet package to the project to have it compiled. Just click "Run" and you're good to go. License JSON is available in the ManagedWifi directory straight from the source code release.
