Revamp the updater to download new versions of the app from the server without requiring the use of a web-browser.

Implement a new minimize to tray to keep the app running without major interface clutter.

Implement an icon to the app

Right now both the SSID and the password fields are not validated before being sent to the applycommand() during the network initialization. Instead, the app checks if the process created by applycommand() exited with any errors (or not) and then raises the adequate warnings/infos.
This is not reliable as there are many scenarios in which the process might result in an error, not necessarily related to the SSID/Password strings.

Implement new functions to get/set registry values in order to clean up the code and make it more "readable"

function setValue (Byval regname As String, regval As String) {
My.Computer.Registry.SetValue("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\GestorRedesVirtuais", regname, regval)
}

function getValue (Byval regname As String) {
return My.Computer.Registry.GetValue("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\GestorRedesVirtuais", regname, Nothing)
}

As of right now the status bar is not dynamic - that is: it doesn't refresh according to the network status - the goal is to implement the ability to refresh the status bar either automatically or upon a click on a refresh button, thus stating the true status of the network at the moment.

Extend the new "current-status process" to allow checking if the system supports hosted networks and warn the user if it doesn't.

When checking for updates the app freezes while connecting to the server
-> move update logic to a background thread

App lags on startup due to multiple tasks being executed on form.show

In the settings form, if the user clears both the SSID and the password fields, the app will not raise any warnings and will store the empty fields in the registry.
This results in an weird names being set for the network until the app is restarted.
