I can't figure out how to get rid of my automatic wifi connections from the network manager, has anyone done this? If so how?
Thanks. :)
 
Right click the connection manager icon, and choose edit connections.
Click the wireless tab
select the offending connection
click edit
uncheck connect automatically

That should do it.

moving the right nub to the right gives you a right click

Yup, had that for something else though. =) Problem is wifi wont connect to anything, period, and i thought those profiles were causing the issue. Turns out its not the problem though.

Running hotfix 3b2 any ideas?

Yes, (known bug) once network-manager failed to connect it won't be able te reconnect until you restart the wifi drivers (from memories) :
Code:
/usr/local/pandora/scripts/op_wifi.sh
will cycle the drivers status, so launching this script 2 times will restart your drivers.

Then desactivate wifi in network manager and reactivate.
It have never failed on me

Will try in a few thanks =D

Found it: There is no usr/local dir just /usr/pandora on mine

Edit: Did this twice, still having the same issue
