Title:
Need a way to prioritise wifi networks
Status in indicator-network package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in ubuntu-system-settings package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
For various reasons I have four wifi networks in my house. Three of
them are in the living room, one in my bedroom. When I'm in the
bedroom my MX4 is normally trying to connect to one of the "wrong"
three, resulting in lots of dropped packets and terrible network
performance.
First, it should automatically connect to the strongest network
available.
Second, there should be a way to prioritise my networks. In my case
one is a "VPN" network where all traffic is routed through Singapore.
This is essential when you need it and nightmarishly slow when you
don't. Despite my VPN and non-VPN networks having the same signal
strength, I need a way to tell my phone to preferentially connect to
the non-VPN network when possible.
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Networking#previous-networks>: "When
reprioritization of networks has been implemented in NetworkManager
(bug 1245986), pressing on a network should make it draggable so that
you can reorder the list."
