/** This is a class for communicating with a Roving Networks RN-171 Wifi module. This
* module comes in a variety of form factors including the Multi-Tech SocketShield.
* This class supports two main types of WiFi module interactions including:
* configuration and status command processing and TCP Socket
* data connections. It should be noted that while a data connection is open the module
* must be put in command mode before commands can be sent. This is handled within the class
* automatically for all native commands. This class also inherits from IPStack
* providing a common set of commands for communication devices that have an onboard
* IP Stack. It is also integrated with the standard mbed Sockets package and can therefore
* be used seamlessly with clients and services built on top of this interface already within
* the mbed library.
*
* All of the following examples use the Pin Names for the Freedom KL46Z board coupled with
* the SocketModem Shield Arduino compatible board. Please chage Pin Names accordingly to
* match your hardware configuration. The default baud rate for the WiFi module is 9600 bps.
*
* The following example shows how to connect to a WiFi netork and perform a basic ping test:
* @code
* #include "mbed.h"
* #include "MTSSerial.h"
* #include "Wifi.h"
* using namespace mts;
*
* int main()
* {
*   std::string ssid = "Your SSID goes here";
*   std::string securityKey = "Your secuirty key goes here";
*   Wifi::SecurityType securityType = Wifi::WPA2;
*
*   //Wait for wifi module to boot up
*   for (int i = 10; i >= 0; i = i - 2) {
*       wait(2);
*       printf("Waiting %d seconds...\n\r", i);
*   }
*
*   //Setup serial interface to WiFi module
*   MTSSerial* serial = new MTSSerial(PTD3, PTD2, 256, 256);
*   serial->baud(9600);
*
*   //Setup Wifi class
*   Wifi* wifi = Wifi::getInstance();
*   printf("Init: %s\n\r", wifi->init(serial) ? "SUCCESS" : "FAILURE");
*
*   //Setup and check connection
*   printf("Set Network: %s\n\r", getCodeNames(wifi->setNetwork(ssid, securityType, securityKey)).c_str());
*   printf("Set DHCP: %s\n\r", getCodeNames(wifi->setDeviceIP("DHCP")).c_str());
*   printf("Connect: %s\n\r", wifi->connect() ? "Success" : "Failure");
*   printf("Is Connected: %s\n\r", wifi->isConnected() ? "True" : "False");
*   printf("Ping Server: %s\n\r", wifi->ping("8.8.8.8") ? "Success" : "Failed");
*
*   //Disconnect from network
*   printf("Disconnecting...\n\r");
*   wifi->disconnect();
*   printf("Is Connected: %s\n\r", wifi->isConnected() ? "True" : "False");
*
*   printf("End Program\n\r");
