A little more information (I just experienced this again and this time left nm to see what would happen). network-manager continues to try the previous (now unavailable) network until prompting for the password, rather than switching to the other network (now available from my phones portable hotspot). I have to manually select the new network to continue.

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Steps to reproduce: 1) Suspend machine while connected to home wireless network 2) Relocate to a cafe to work and resume ER: network manager checks for existence of previous connection before saying "Connection established", or at least checks as soon as possible to identify that that network is no longer available and scan for others. AR: "Connection established" (to my home network) displayed. I then waited for it to realise that was impossible and switch to my mobile hotspot, but gave up after 5-10 seconds and manually switched networks.
