Right, but just imagine you close the laptop in the university and open |

There is no such thing as "re-associating". The interface is still |

configured for the university net which simply isn't there anymore. Some |
| 10 |
application needs to scan for available nets and it should then realize, |
| 11 |
that it should reconfigure the interface for my home net. |
