I been looking thru the document and forum, I am thinking of using SEMI\_AUTOMATIC. But I am confuse on how to release the blocking form the user code once the internet is lost, it just keep blinking green.

Seem like back in '14, [Functioning with wifi and internet drops](https://community.particle.io/t/functioning-with-wifi-and-internet-drops/4626/7), there were similar question as mine.

Does anyone have some sample code to keep the user code running during a lost of network and reconnect when the network is available?
