Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-manager
After booting the system, normally network manager connects to my own secured wireless network. Normally there is no other visible vireless network. However sometimes, when some other wireless network gets activated (call it "X Network"), after booting my laptop I see message from Network Manager like "Trying to connect to X Network". And it frozens on this, and does not connect to my own network. After left-click on network manager I see two networks: my own and "X Network". X Network is selected. I try to click on my network on the list to switch to it - nothing happens, X is selected all the time and network manager still tries to connect to it.
I can only change it after some tricky combinations of deactvating wireless networks and rebooting.
forgot to mention: I use Ubuntu Gutsy
