Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to
look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. There have been many

Title:
  NM fails to recognize already configured Wi-Fi connection

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  i am using wifi network at my office. we have multiple routers at different buildings given names like rd1, rd2 etc.
  they are password protetced for access and my laptop has a static ip. when i connect to any router it asks for password which is remembered. 
  when i move around the router is selected automatically. the routers are from CISCO mainly with model no linksys E1500.
  the problem is if i am connected to rd1 and the move to rd2 router location, after some time it if i come back to rd1 location it detects rd1 as rd1 1 , asks password for router again. it coonects  with automatic ipv4 setting which are not the configuration of my static settings. this causes non connectivity to network

  please help how do i solve this
