    Hey, I was wondering if there's a jailbreak substrate add-on that makes an iPhone/iPod check for an available and working (test packet send and receive) WiFi whenever it is disconnected from WiFi and attempt to connect with that WiFi router. For example, if I walk with my iPhone to a library I've never been to before, my iPhone will automatically connect to any public WiFi available there. Just curious if it exists and if you can point me to that app.

    The iphone will ask to join networks that it detects if you set that up in settings. It can also autojoin known networks.
    I don't believe there are any apps that will automatically connect you to a newly discovered network though.

    On every other device iPass can do this but on iPhone it doesn't work, it either is something they are keeping you from doing in the os or is a chipset limitation. Annoying.
