+_danicampora_: Just as WLAN below, I think it should be possible to retrieve the existing WDT instance when calling the constructor with no params besides the id.

 ## The WLAN class
 
 The WLAN class belongs to the network module.

 `wlan = WLAN(id, mode=WLAN.STA, *, ssid='wlan', auth=None, channel=1, iface=None)`

+Since WLAN might be a system feature of the platform (this is the case of the WiPy and the ESP8266),

 - `wlan.init()` re-init.
