I loaded up Octopi, the distro version of Octoprint to a Raspberry Pi B+.  I finally got things working and a few things printed, and then all of a sudden I'm greeted with a message in the interface saying that it had been disconnected, and the LED on the Wi-Pi was out.I could not reconnect, or find it in the connected devices of my router, so I connected some peripherals and lo and behold, the Wi-Fi had dropped.  I was able to reconnect by removing the Wi-Pi and plugging it back in.Doing a search on the net yielded me headache/nauseating results about cron jobs, modifying scripts, or installing Wi-Fi managers.  However, those articles and questions are all 1 - 3 years old.How to automatically reconnect WiFi?WiFi disconnects after period of time on Raspberry Pi, doesn't reconnectWIFI Drops OutWifi Reconnect on dropTrying to understand Auto reconnect WIFI methodApparently the newest version of the Octopi distro (0.12, the one that I'm using) does something different with the Wi-Fi management, so you can only get it to connect by modifying octopi-network.txt and putting in the SSID and password.I've got a few closely related questions:Can Raspbian/Debian not automatically reconnect itself to a network?How is that, or under what circumstances is that, a good idea?Do you still have to fiddle with Raspbian to get it to auto-reconnect?What would be some things to look for in a Wi-Fi management suite in Linux?  I am familiar with Windows and over there, that sort of thing is part of the OS and/or driver package.Why did this question go unanswered? Trying to understand Auto reconnect WIFI method
