So this is different than my testing results. The iPad I am using (currently on 7.0.3) always connects to the last network I was last connected to. I have done this several times now with three SSIDs. One starts with D, eduroam and the last one (our primary) Mwireless.
The only time I connected to eduroam was when I was leaving a coverage area. I dropped MWireless and it tried to connect to eduroam (may have connected briefly). However, if I left the area while it was connected to MWireless, when I came back it would still connect to MWireless. I also tried turning off WiFi with same results. ------------------------ Walter Reynolds Principal Systems Security Development Engineer Information and Technology Services University of Michigan (734) 615-9438 On Mon, Mar 10, 2014 at 12:00 PM, Knee, Patrick <[email protected]> wrote: > We have the same issue, because our "main" SSID comes after eduroam > (alphabetically, our main ssid begins with a "f").
