1 [[!meta title="YA Reason why I ♥ UNIX"]]
4 Trying to do some work for the
5 [Mystery Hunt](http://www.mit.edu/~puzzle) which starts on Friday at
6 noon, and the wireless at MIT keeps deauthenticating me for reason 1.
7 (Which apparently is the dreaded "unknown reason for
8 deauthentication".) Reassociating makes everything work again. Fast,
12 if iwconfig wireless |grep -q "ESSID:off"; then
13 iwconfig wireless essid "MIT GUEST";
14 echo "reset wireless";
18 and I'm back at work with relatively continuous network connectivity.
