Raspberry Pi Wifi Redux

OK now. You heard me describe in my last post how my raspberry pis don’t hold a wifi connection persistently. This weekend, after a little googling, I believe I have found the answer to that problem. Well, technically, 2 answers. And I am not sure which one works, so I am using them both 😀 […]
