Mathieu,
thanks for the thoughts.

Firstly the issue with the password being re-requested is not to do with have 
two networks with the same name.
The problem occurs regularly when I arrive home. My wlan has a fairly unique 
name 'noojee' so I can be very certain that no one else is using it.

The NM developers seemed to have gone over-board in what I guess was an attept 
to simplify the nm interface.
The result of this is that if you 'accidently' click on a wlan connection from 
then on your laptop will continously try to connect to that wlan. The problem 
is that the NM developers have provided no means of removing that wlan from 
your 'auto connect' list.

If I've understood you statement regarding 'Disconnecting explicitly'
which I've taken to mean 'disable you wlan' then that does work for me
either as it disables all of my wlan connections when I just want to
disable the ones that keep annoying me.
