    Connecting to a WiFi network with C++ is kind of like trying to fix a car with a hammer. You can try all you want but it’s not the right tool for the job. I’m sure there is probably a way to do it with the Windows or POSIX APIs, but it’d be far easier to write a batch\shell script and invoke that script within a program.

    If you’re talking specifically about using the internet for something in an application, odds are you’re going to be using a database connector (SQL, MySQL, Mongo, etc) or a c++ cURL library.
