If for some reason the network has been disabled without your
knowledge, it should be easy to turn it on again. The easiest fix in
the case of Firefox, would be to change the offline message to direct
the user to enable the network. A slightly better solution would be to
provide a button or a widget that allows you to enable the network, or
choose an accesspoint right from within Firefox. That allows you to
fix the problem right where it occurs.
