Bug Description
bugs that impact standard workflows, like connecting to the network:
The NM applet lists visible/available Wifi hotspots, and automatically connects to one, which the user might not like to use.
The proposed solution is to be able to put an up/down preference ordering arrow in the wireless connection editor, next to the list, somewhere where the the new/edit/delete buttons are. Also the possibility for prioritizing according to actual signal strength/speed would be welcome.

Thanks a lot for reporting this, however since this constitutes a feature request, then it unfortunately does not qualify as a paper cut.
