I think automatic renaming would be a bit weird too. Fwiw, the "Auto " does not come from wether the connection should automatically connect or not. It stemms from how you created it. There are basically two ways to create a connection: a) Explicitly via nm-connection-editor, where you choose the connection name yourself. b) Implicitly by clicking on a wireless network in the drop down list in nm-applet. nm-applet will prompt you for the password (if needed) and "automatically" create a connection for you. I hope this makes it more clear. Michael -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
