## Notes
Wifi-Sitter can be installed from the command line. First place the exe where
you'd like it to stay (if you move it, the service will break), then run like
so from an admin shell:
`WifiSitter.exe /install`
The service is configured to start automatically but will not be started after
if you're automating a deployment, you'll need to run `net start wifisitter`
or use your service starting command of choice.
Similarly, uninstall like so:
`WifiSitter.exe /uninstall`
It can be run as a console application for debugging purposes by running:
`WifiSitter.exe /console`
