Is there any way to tell my iMac to NEVER EVER EVER turn off the Airport?

I've disabled putting the disks to sleep, I've disabled the screensaver... but every once in a while, even while I'm in the middle of typing something on a web page, the Airport icon spontaneously greys out. And no matter how long I wait, it won't reconnect on its own; I have to manually select my network - which as far as I can tell never disappears from the list, so it's not like it's losing connectivity.

Failing that, is there a command-line tool or non-GUI-scripting AS technique to turn it back on that I can schedule to run periodically?

I use this Mac remotely over the network - which is nothing but WiFi, because running CATx through the hardwood floor is a pain - and it's quite aggravating when it just drops off the network for no good reason...

I just came across this while looking for something else:

<x-man-page://networksetup>

from the following where the same issue is discussed (and I think not fully resolved):
