Subject: [OS2Wireless] wlan trying to connect to the wrong network

Hi,

Recently, I'm experiencing some trouble with my wlan connection.

Since sometimes the wireless card wouldn't come up after hibernation,
I got used to disable the radio before putting my notebook to sleep.
After wakeup, I enable the radio, and it would connect to my access
point again.

Recently, a neighbour probably has installed an access point. Now,
after enabling the radio, it wants to connect to that one, although it
has a different ssid than the one I use and have stated in a profile
that is active.
I have one other profile, but in that one even another ssid is set up.

If I then switch to public hotspot, and then to my profile, it then
tries to connect to my access point.

My question: why does it try to connect to the neighbour's access
point, while the config is setup so that it should only connect to
mine?
