to create and use TCP/UDP sockets as usual, and the ``urequests`` module for
convenient HTTP requests.
+After a call to ``wlan.connect()``, the device will by default retry to connect
+**forever**, even when the authentication failed or no AP is in range.
+``wlan.status()`` will return ``network.STAT_CONNECTING`` in this state until a
+connection succeeds or the interface gets disabled. This can be changed by
+calling ``wlan.config(reconnects=n)``, where n are the number of desired reconnect
+attempts (0 means it won't retry, -1 will restore the default behaviour of trying
+to reconnect forever).
