When the Client is first installed, there is a Configured Network named "default" in the list. This profile has Associate with any network selected in its Properties selection screen.

If you are going to be in a location with only one AP (or more than one AP that attaches to the same network), the default profile may be sufficient for you needs, without necessitating the selection of a specific network or networks.

If default is last in the list, it can act as a wildcard should you be out of the range of your primary networks (which are listed first). Do not place default at the top or middle of the list because, if it is, connection to the other list entries will never be attempted.

Tapping this button moves a selected network up one place in the list.

Tapping this button moves a selected network down one place in the list.

Note: The order of the networks in this list is the exact order that connections will be attempted. The network listed first will be attempted first and so on. Place your primary networks first.

Tap this button to manually add a network to the Configured Networks list if

•the AP does not broadcast its SSID or

•you are pre-configuring the client for an AP that is not currently in range.

Tap this button to remove a selected network in the list.
