Band-aid for Yosemite WiFi issues caused from AWDL (even when the user is not specifically using AWDL/AirDrop).

More detail at https://medium.com/@mariociabarra/wifriedx-in-depth-look-at-yosemite-wifi-and-awdl-airdrop-41a93eb22e48

Summed up, it's a glorified "sudo ifconfig awdl0 down" that monitors the interface and brings it back down if needbe.

  • Runs at Login
  • Uninstalls Daemon on the following boot after the App is deleted.

Contains:

  • Menu bar item which monitors the interface and sends commands to daemon helper
  • SMBlessed PriviledgedHelper daemon to bring the interface up/down

Uninstall Note: If a user does not uncheck launch at login in the app before deleting the app, ther user can uncheck under Preferences -> User Accounts -> Login Items. The entry is simply an entry in the launch login item plist, but just to be clear.
