[Bug 366780] Re: Please provide a mechanism whereby Wi-Fi networks can be prioritized

 

I have my wireless at home. I also have a FON (fonera) account. The
problem is that my neighbor have a FON router also and his signal
strength is as strong as mine.  Every time i turn on the computer, i
have about 50% change of getting the right wireless, mine. Other times i
have all networks reporting error and the browser showing the fon login
page. I have either to login in the fon page or manually switch to the
right wireless. very annoying!! At very least connect to the most used
network!

  Please provide a mechanism whereby Wi-Fi networks can be prioritized

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: network-manager

  I've got few wifi network profiles. NM connects to 1st available
  network in alphabetical order. But at my home NM connects to slow and
  unstable free network and I want to connect to my own wifi router. I
  suggest to add some priorities to different networks to set the order
  which network to connect to.
