Auto Connect

Connect to available network using profiles only: (Default) Connect the wireless

adapter to an available network with a matching profile from the

Profiles List

. If no matching

profile is found, you are notified (see

Notifications

). The wireless device remains

disconnected until a matching profile is found or you configure a new matching profile.

Connect to any available network if no matching profile found: Select to connect to a

network automatically if you have not configured a profile and are at a location that has an

open, unsecured wireless network. NOTE: Open networks have no security. You would need

to provide your own security for this wireless connection. One way to secure an open

wireless connection is with Virtual Private Networking (VPN) software.

Connect to any network based on profiles only (Cisco mode): Select to try every

profile in preferred order. This signifies that you are in the vicinity of an access point which

has more than one SSID but only advertises one.
