@Rolf: yes this is the problem.
The problem is also when we alternate between not just "home" and "work" but also "free-but-slow".
Use case:
- I'm at home with "home"
- I go out in a public place and use "free-but-slow"
- I go back at home. I expect to be connected to "home" instead of "free-but-slow".
So the "last used connection" is not an appropriate algorithm for a laptop that frequently changes of connection.
In Windows, the connection list is ordered, independently of the connection name. So I can put in order "work", "home", "free-but-slow" and "free-but-slow" will only be used if none of the others two are available.
