Install the [guessnet](apt://guessnet) package. This will install the `guessnet-ifupdown` helper tool.
Now edit your `/etc/network/interfaces` file and add the following lines:
~~~
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-ssid CompanyWLAN
wpa-proto WPA
wpa-key-mgmt WPA-PSK
wpa-psk S3Cr3tKe4
mapping wlan0
script guessnet-ifupdown
map default: wlan0-open
map autofilter: true # look for wlan0- interfaces
map timeout: 9
map init-time: 9 # for slow drivers
map verbose: true
map debug: false
iface wlan0-home inet dhcp
test wireless essid WLANatHOME closed
wpa-psk S3cr3tH0meKe4
wpa-key-mgmt WPA-PSK
wpa-proto WPA
wpa-ssid WLANatHOME
# if all else fails: pick an open network
iface wlan0-open inet dhcp
test wireless open
wireless-essid any
wireless-mode auto
~~~
This will first try to connect to the **CompanyWLAN** network and if this is not found, try the **WLANatHOME**. If
everything fails, it will connect to any open Access Point.
