Bypassing "wifi pausing"

there's two possibilities for this wifi blocking:

  1. it's setup to only allow whitelisted devices, in this case you're fucked, only option is to pretend to be some whitelisted device
  2. it's a blacklist, in this case changing your mac address will make you appear to be a new device, anyone monitoring the device list could see the unknown device appear

it contains things such as sockets and lock files so that programs can interact with each other
