Auto reconnect wifi?

Question

I use 10.04 on my laptop . Whenever my router switches on and off I have to manually click on a popup ok button to re-enable connection to router . How can this be done automatically ?

Thanks.

For Ubuntu 11.04 it automatically reconnects to your wifi.

For 10.04 check Automatically reconnect wireless connection

or you may need to write a small script with

iwconfig wlan0 iwconfig wlan0 | grep -o "Access Point: Not-Associated"

ifconfig wlan0 down or ifconfig wlan0 up
