 +==== Raspberry Pi Dropping of Wireless Network ====
  
-==== to do ====+I found my raspberry Pi Zero, that is using the official Raspberry Pi Wireless Dongle drops off the wireless network after around a week. Only a reboot gets it back (as I have no keyb/mouse connected) so I figured just using Cron to reboot the thing every 24 hours will be a suitable work around. 
 +\\  
 +\\  
 +To use cron (should already be installed): 
 +\\  
 +\\  
 +    sudo crontab -e (reboots require super user rights) 
 +\\  
 +Insert the following line: 
 +\\  
 +\\  
 +    0 0          /sbin/shutdown -r 
 +\\  
 +Explanation:
