This is definitely necessary as opposed to a wishlist item. Here's why. Cable providers offer WiFi hotspots now and coverage is growing rapidly.
While at home, I can use either one. However, when I am home, I WANT my network because it is faster. The old mindset was that the system would use an available network that you had set up......However, with HotSpot coverage, I get either one at home. I would prefer an option to use the order of appearance in the network window with a move up/down to order the priority. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366780 Title: Please provide a mechanism whereby Wi-Fi networks can be prioritized Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed 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.
