[Bug 1488587] [NEW] NetworkManager ignores setting "Automatically connect to this network when available"

 

Public bug reported:

I have two Wi-Fi networks available, one is slow and one is fast. I
unchecked option "Automatically connect to this network when available"
for slow network, but NetworkManager keeps connecting to slow network
automatically. I have to manually disconnect and connect to fast network
manually.
